HARRY MATTHEWS

Scholar | Poet | Painter | Fiction Writer

Harry Matthews is a scholar specialising in pastoral ecology in early modern literature. His research explores how early modern pastoral poetry—most notably Richard Barnfield—challenges traditional metaphysical and ecological frameworks.

A doctoral researcher in English Literature, Harry has an interdisciplinary background in Philosophy and Politics (B.A. (Hons), University of Reading) and an M.A. in Writing (Liverpool John Moores University). He previously worked as a journalist for Amsterdam Weekly and has presented his research internationally, including a 2023 paper on The Affectionate Shepheard at Sapienza University, Rome.

His academic work reflects his perspective as a neurodivergent (AuDHD) thinker, exploring nature, identity, and spirituality. He has a deep interest in Rumi, Sufi mysticism, and the poetry and prose of Thomas Traherne, drawing connections between mystical traditions and literary expressions of transcendence.

Beyond academia, Harry is a poet, painter, and fiction writer, specialising in fantasy and thrillers. His published works under his own imprint, Harry Art Publishing, include Idylls of the Nympahi, A Whimsical Journey Through India (2021) and Sonnets to Amsterdam (2024), while his artwork has been exhibited in MerzSHED II (Merzman, Manchester: 2011), Wabi-Sabi Paintings (Brantwood: 2015), Journey Through India (Bear Steps, Shrewsbury: 2017), Oils & Watercolours (The Festival Centre, Gallery, Market Drayton: 2018). His multidisciplinary background informs his creative practice, offering fresh, innovative expressions and perspectives on literature, art, and storytelling.
