Widely celebrated as the supreme English poet and often called the Victorian Oracle,1 Tenny­ son may well be considered the best exemplar of the nine­ teenth century.

I have put it second in the pair because that is its right place. Criticisms, com^ ments, interpretations, are of comparatively little use until you have read the poetry of which they treat. Like photographs of places that one has not seen, they lack the reviving, realizing touch of remembrance. The book contains a series of essays, written at dif- ferent times, printed separately in different places, and collected, substantially, in a book called The Poetry of Tennyson, which was fortunate enough to find many friends, and has now, I believe, gone out of print.

  • Alfred Lord Tennyson the Eartly Poems of Alfred
    ALFRED LORD TENNYSON THE EARTLY POEMS OF ALFRED LORD TENNYSON 2008 – All rights reserved Non commercial use permitted THE EARLY POEMS OF ALFRED LORD TENNYSON EDITED WITH A CRITICAL INTRODUCTION. COMMENTARIES AND NOTES, TOGETHER WITH THE VARIOUS READINGS, A TRANSCRIPT OF THE POEMS TEMPORARILY AND FINALLY SUPPRESSED AND A BIBLIOGRAPHY BY JOHN CHURTON COLLINS PREFACE A Critical edition of Tennyson's poems has long been an acknowledged want. He has taken his place among the English Classics, and as a Classic he is, and will be, studied, seriously and minutely, by many thousands of his countrymen, both in the present generation as well as in future ages. As in the works of his more illustrious brethren, so in his trifles will become subjects of curious interest, and assume an importance of which we have no conception now. Here he will engage the attention of the antiquary, there of the social historian. Long after his politics, his ethics, his theology have ceased to be immediately influential, they will be of immense historical significance. A consummate artist and a consummate master of our language, the process by which he achieved results so memorable can never fail to be of interest, and of absorbing interest, to critical students. I must, I fear, claim the indulgence due to one who attempts, for the first time, a critical edition of a text so perplexingly voluminous in variants as Tennyson's. I can only say that I have spared neither time nor labour to be accurate and exhaustive. I have myself collated, or have had collated for me, every edition recorded in the British Museum Catalogue, and where that has been deficient I have had recourse to other public libraries, and to the libraries of private friends.

There hath he lain for ages, and will lie Battening upon huge sea worms in his sleep, Until the latter fire shall heat the deep; Then once by man and angels to be seen, In roaring he shall rise and on the surface die. IN THE VALLEY OF CAUTERETZ All along the valley, stream that flashest white, Deepening thy voice with the deepening of the night, All along the valley, where thy waters flow, I walk'd with one I loved two and thirty years ago. All along the valley, while I walk'd to-day, The two and thirty years were a mist that rolls away; For all along the valley, down thy rocky bed, Thy living voice to me was as the voice of the dead, And all along the valley, by rock and cave and tree, The voice of the dead was a living voice to me.

  • Alfred, Lord Tennyson 1 Alfred, Lord Tennyson
    Alfred, Lord Tennyson 1 Alfred, Lord Tennyson The Right Honourable Lord Tennyson FRS 1869 Carbon print by Julia Margaret Cameron Born 6 August 1809 Somersby, Lincolnshire, England United Kingdom Died 6 October 1892 (aged 83) [] Lurgashall, Sussex, England United Kingdom Occupation Poet Laureate Alma mater Cambridge University Spouse(s) Emily Sellwood (m. 1850–w. 1892) Children • Hallam Tennyson (b. 11 August 1852) • Lionel (b. 16 March 1854) Alfred Tennyson, 1st Baron Tennyson, FRS (6 August 1809 – 6 October 1892) was Poet Laureate of Great Britain and Ireland during much of Queen Victoria's reign and remains one of the most popular British poets.[1] Tennyson excelled at penning short lyrics, such as "Break, Break, Break", "The Charge of the Light Brigade", "Tears, Idle Tears" and "Crossing the Bar". Much of his verse was based on classical mythological themes, such as Ulysses, although In Memoriam A.H.H. was written to commemorate his best friend Arthur Hallam, a fellow poet and fellow student at Trinity College, Cambridge, who was engaged to Tennyson's sister, but died from a brain haemorrhage before they could marry. Tennyson also wrote some notable blank verse including Idylls of the King, "Ulysses", and "Tithonus". During his career, Tennyson attempted drama, but his plays enjoyed little success. A number of phrases from Tennyson's work have become commonplaces of the English language, including "Nature, red in tooth and claw", "'Tis better to have loved and lost / Than never to have loved at all", "Theirs not to reason why, / Theirs but to do and die", "My strength is as the strength of ten, / Because my heart is pure", "To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield", "Knowledge comes, but Wisdom lingers", and "The old order changeth, yielding place to new".

  • Lyric Explanation: Tennyson's Princesses
    Lyric Explanation: Tennyson’s Princesses EWAN JONES _______________________ Tennyson was seldom slow to self-deprecate or cite mitigating circumstances with reference to his verse; yet his apology for The Princess is striking even by such inimitable standards. The third edition of that extended narrative poem appeared in 1850, little more than two years after the first. Unlike the minimally corrected second edition—which appeared a mere month and a half after its original—this further version made several substantial revisions. By far the most significant of these was the introduction of six rhyming lyric interludes, intercalated within the unfolding blank verse narrative. Tennyson’s apology characteristically combined mea culpa and defensive self-justification: ‘[b]efore the first edition came out’, he confessed, ‘I deliberated with myself whether I should put songs between the separate divisions of the poem; again I thought that the poem would explain itself, but the public did not see the drift’.1 It is not difficult to imagine that The Princess’s narrative—in which several friends gather at a Mechanical Institute open-day, and spontaneously sing into being a tale about a group of women who secede from society to set up an all- female University, only to be infiltrated by a group of cross-dressing males who, unmasked, lay siege to the establishment, gaining entry only when their military 1 Hallam Lord Tennyson, Alfred Lord Tennyson: A Memoir by His Son, 2 vols (London: Macmillan, 1897), I, p. 254; hereafter, Memoir.

  • Alfred Lord Tennyson - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Alfred Lord Tennyson - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Alfred Lord Tennyson(6 August 1809 – 6 October 1892) Alfred Tennyson, 1st Baron Tennyson, FRS was Poet Laureate of the United Kingdom during much of Queen Victoria's reign and remains one of the most popular poets in the English language. Tennyson excelled at penning short lyrics, such as "In the Valley of Cauteretz", "Break, Break, Break", "The Charge of the Light Brigade", "Tears, Idle Tears" and "Crossing the Bar". Much of his verse was based on classical mythological themes, such as Ulysses, although In Memoriam A.H.H. was written to commemorate his best friend Arthur Hallam, a fellow poet and fellow student at Trinity College, Cambridge, who was engaged to Tennyson's sister, but died from a brain haemorrhage before they could marry. Tennyson also wrote some notable blank verse including Idylls of the King, "Ulysses," and "Tithonus." During his career, Tennyson attempted drama, but his plays enjoyed little success. A number of phrases from Tennyson's work have become commonplaces of the English language, including "Nature, red in tooth and claw", "'Tis better to have loved and lost / Than never to have loved at all", "Theirs not to reason why, / Theirs but to do and die", "My strength is as the strength of ten, / Because my heart is pure", "Knowledge comes, but Wisdom lingers", and "The old order changeth, yielding place to new". He is the ninth most frequently quoted writer in The Oxford Dictionary of Quotations. <b>Early Life</b> Tennyson was born in Somersby, Lincolnshire, a rector's son and fourth of 12 children.
