Alfred Lord Tennyson

Alfred Lord Tennyson was born in 1809 at Somersby, Lincolnshire, the sixth of eleven children of a clergyman. His first important book, Poems, Chiefly Lyrical, was published in 1830, and was not a critical success, but his two volumes of Poems, 1842, which contain some of his finest work, established him as the leading poet of his generation. T. S. Eliot wrote of Tennyson: ‘He has three qualities which are seldom found together except in the greatest poets: abundance, variety and complete competence. He had the finest ear of any English poet since Milton.’ After a short illness Tennyson died in 1892 and was buried in Westminster Abbey.

  • Tennyson

    Positieve punten

    • Fantasierijk

    Het boek heeft een mooie omslag, en niet geheel onbelangrijk, een mooie inhoud. Ook leuk omdecoratief neer te leggen.
