1982年，《西尔维亚·汤森·华纳诗集》（Collected Poems of Sylvia Townsend Warner）由Carcanet出版社出版时，编辑克莱尔·哈曼（Claire Harman）选择将这位诗人为1934年出版的《是鸽子还是海鸥》（Whether a Dove or Seagull）一书所作的大约50首诗歌全部删去。正如她在导言中所阐述的那样，她这样做的理由是有道理的。无论是鸽子还是海鸥是一个联合收集;大约一半的诗，它包含的西尔维亚汤森华纳，另一半由她的情人和多年的合作伙伴，瓦伦丁阿克兰。正如克莱尔·哈曼（Claire Harman）所指出的，大多数诗歌都是诗人写给另一个诗人的爱情诗，在这本共享的书中，它们最合理的背景并排出现。也部分地掩盖了西尔维娅汤森华纳整个作品中女同性恋主题的存在和力量。
When, in 1982, the Collected Poems of Sylvia Townsend Warner was published by Carcanet Press, the editor, Claire Harman, chose to omit in its entirety the poet’s contribution, some fifty odd poems, to the volume Whether a Dove or Seagull, which appeared in 1934. Her grounds for doing so, as set out in her introduction, have some reason in them. Whether a Dove or Seagull is a joint collection; roughly half the poems it contains are by Sylvia Townsend Warner, the other half by her lover and partner of many years, Valentine Ackland. Most of the poems, as Claire Harman notes, are love poems written by either poet to the other, and find their most reasonant context side by side in this shared volume.1 Nevertheless, an evident result of the omission has been to thrust still further into neglect some of the most interesting and impressive love poetry written between women, and also partially to obscure the presence and force of the lesbian theme in Sylvia Townsend Warner’s work as a whole.
