Introduced as an “entertaining guest” by a mutual friend, he had succeeded in charming Mrs Taylor, who put the family up in a summerhouse in their garden in
67、the grounds of Magdalen College (牛津大学莫德林学院)Thomas had a lovehate relationship with Oxford, according to his biographer Andrew Lycett. His poetry may have brought him respect and celebrity in literary circles, but in Oxford he felt at odds with his surroundings. “His father, who had been a schoolmast
68、er in Swansea, would have liked him to go to Oxford University，” Mr Lycett explains. “When he did actually get to Oxford he wasnt actually at the university. It was a curious period. He was in this academic environment though he wasnt a born academic himself. But he generally enjoyed himself because
69、 he got to know some of the professors there. He wasnt popular among them, because they thought he was a bit of a wastrel (不务正业者), so he hung out in pubs and met students.”Thomas also took paid jobs at the BBC, regularly travelling to London and became something of a celebrity through appearing on p
70、anel shows.“He didnt really endear (使受垂青) himself to Professor Taylor，” Mr Lycett says. “He_overstayed_his_welcome. The professor liked to have a barrel of beer in the house and Dylan would finish it off. He just took a dislike to him, partly because, reading between the lines, his wife rather fanci

72、Thomas by Margaret, who continued to be his proud sponsor. However, it was here that his granddaughter Hannah Ellis believes Thomas found much of the inspiration for one of his most famous works, the radio drama Under Milk Wood. “South Leigh is hugely important because that was one of those villages
73、 where he met all the different characters and it helped him arouse his passion，” she says. “The play had been a seed from when he was about 20 and I think it was that village lifestyle and all the characters that helped. He liked sitting in the corner of the pub, watching all the drama going on. Al
74、so he had somewhere quiet to work and a home. For such a long time he hadnt settled and it was a good period in his life.”Mrs Taylor also helped him return to Wales when he was ready in 1949, buying him a boathouse with her own money. He lived there for the remainder of his life.“People so often foc
75、us on the other periods of his life and they forget about Oxford，” adds Ms Ellis. “They see the romantic period of living in Laugharne at the boathouse, and the contrast of the chaotic times in New York.”“Theres just something interesting about this little Welshman wandering around the streets of Ox
76、ford，” adds Mr Lycett. “The period isnt discussed much. Somehow or other there was this intervening period that tends to get forgotten. People dont realize he was starting to think about Under Milk Wood so it wasnt unproductive. His time in Oxford was an important period of his life.”Indeed Mr Davie
77、s believes Thomass connection to Oxford would be better known if he had studied at the university. “Because he didnt and he was only here as a guest of the college it has been brushed to one side，” he said.“There are some great historical characters who, because theyre not associated with the univer
