Synopsis

Tennyson's poetry epitomizes the Victorian age, for which he became a spokesman. His finest poems are often steeped in a sensuous melancholy, as in 'Maud', or are chivalric, heroic and allegorical as in 'The Lady of Shalott'. The poetry in this audiobook follows Tennyson's career from the pre-Cambridge years of Prosperine to the time of the loss of his close friend, Hallam. It also includes later poems such as 'The Charge of the Light Brigade' and 'Locksley Hall Sixty Years After'. The poetry is linked by an explanatory commentary which places the work in a biographical and historical context.

À propos de l?auteur

Alfred Lord Tennyson was born in 1809 in Lincolnshire, and was educated at Trinity College, Cambridge, where he became close friends with Arthur Hallam. On Hallam's death, Tennyson was stricken with grief which he expressed in 'In Memoriam'. In 1850 he succeeded Wordsworth as Poet Laureate. He continued to write poetry and plays into his old age. Weakened by the death of his younger son, he died in 1892.
