Summary

Admired by his generation for giving a voice to their doubts, beliefs, and clouded hopes, Tennyson was one of the leading British poets of mid- to late 19th century and is respected today for the skill and delicacy with which he crafted his greatest works, including In Memoriam A.H.H., Idylls of the King, and "The Charge of the Light Brigade." This new collection of classic criticism endeavors to explore how Tennyson was viewed by critics, scholars, and other writers during and immediately after his lifetime. With an introduction by noted scholar Harold Bloom, this title also features a handy chronology of Tennyson's life and an index for quick reference.
