Dixon, Richard Watson (1833–1900), the intimate friend of Burne-Jones and W.
Morris. He was closely involved in the
Pre-Raphaelite movement before marriage and various preferments distanced him from his early life. He published an important
History of the Church of England from the Abolition of the Roman Jurisdiction (1878–1902). His original and striking poetry found few but discriminating admirers, including
Bridges and G. M.
Hopkins; his correspondence with Hopkins (ed. C. C. Abbott, 1935), covering the years 1878–88, is of great interest. His long narrative poem
Mano (1883), set in the year ad 999 as the world awaits the millennium, recounts in
terza rima the adventures of Mano, a Norman knight. Dixon is now better remembered for his shorter pieces (‘Dream’, ‘The Wizard's Funeral’), reprinted with a memoir by Bridges in a selection in 1909.
