Alfred,Lord Tennyson (1809-1892),English poet,one of the great representative figures of the Victorian Age.His writing encompasses many poetic styles and includes some of the finest idyllic poetry in the language.
Alfred Tennyson was born in Somersby,Lincolnshire,on August 6,1809.His initial education was conducted largely by his clergyman father,Dr.George Clayton Tennyson.The boy showed an early interest and talent in poetic composition,working original poems in a variety of meters and also successfully imitating the style of such famous poets as Lord Byron,whom he greatly admired.By the time he was 15,Tennyson had produced several blank-verse plays and an epic.Some of his boyhood poetry was published in collaboration with his brother Charles in Poems by Two Brothers (1827).
II Poetic Development
Print this section
In 1827 Tennyson entered Trinity College,University of Cambridge.While there he wrote a spirited blank-verse poem,Timbuctoo (1829),for which he received a prize,and published his first book on his own,Poems,Chiefly Lyrical (1830),which includes “Mariana”.In the summer of 1830,with his close friend Arthur Hallam,he joined a Spanish revolutionary army,but participated in no military engagements.
In 1831,following the death of his father,Tennyson left Cambridge without taking a degree.His second volume,Poems (1832),contains such familiar lyrics as “The Lady of Shalott,” “Oenone,” “The Palace of Art,” “The Lotos-Eaters,” and “A Dream of Fair Women,” but was severely criticized by the reviewers.The sudden death of his friend Hallam in 1833 produced in Tennyson a profound spiritual depression,and he vowed to refrain from issuing any more of his verse for a period of ten years.During this time he devoted himself to reading and meditation.While refusing to publish,he did continue to write,producing,for example,The Two Voices (1834),a philosophical poem on death and immortality.

Alfred Tennyson (1809-1892), English poet often regarded as the chief representative of the Victorian age in poetry. Tennyson succeeded Wordsworth as Poet Laureate in 1850.
Alfred, Lord Tennyson was born on August 5, 1809 in Somersby, Lincolnshire. His father, George Clayton Tennyson, a clergyman and rector, suffered from depression and was notoriously absentminded. Alfred began to write poetry at an early age in the style of Lord Byron. After spending four unhappy years in school he was tutored at home. Tennyson then studied at Trinity College, Cambridge, where he joined the literary club 'The Apostles' and met Arthur Hallam, who became his closest friend. Tennyson published Poems, Chiefly Lyrical, in 1830, which included the popular "Mariana".
His next book, Poems (1833), received unfavorable reviews, and Tennyson ceased to publish for nearly ten years. Hallam died suddenly on the same year in Vienna. It was a heavy blow to Tennyson. He began to write "In Memoriam", an elegy for his lost friend - the work took seventeen years. "The Lady of Shalott", "The Lotus-eaters" "Morte d'Arthur" and "Ulysses" appeared in 1842 in the two-volume Poems and established his reputation as a writer.
After marrying Emily Sellwood, whom he had already met in 1836, the couple settled in Farringford, a house in Freshwater on the Isle of Wight in 1853. From there the family moved in 1869 to Aldworth, Surrey. During these later years he produced some of his best poems.
Among Tennyson's major poetic achievements is the elegy mourning the death of his friend Arthur Hallam, "In Memoriam" (1850). The patriotic poem "Charge of the Light Brigade", published in Maud (1855), is one of Tennyson's best known works, although at first "Maud" was found obscure or morbid by critics ranging from George Eliot to Gladstone. Enoch Arden (1864) was based on a true story of a sailor thought drowned at sea who returned home after several years to find that his wife had remarried. Idylls Of The King (1859-1885) dealt with the Arthurian theme.
In the 1870s Tennyson wrote several plays, among them the poetic dramas Queen Mary (1875) and Harold (1876). In 1884 he was created a baron.
Tennyson died at Aldwort on October 6, 1892 and was buried in the Poets' Corner in Westminster Abbey.

help with quote
I am very illiterate in literature, but know what I like when I read it. So I found this forum hoping I could get some help. I was reading "A Certain Crossroad" by Emilie Loring, and found the following quote... And sometimes the sky was like unto a great turquoise for blueness, and sometimes it was like a gray pall, and sometimes the highway wound through level radiant fields, and sometimes the rough road plunged down a steep declivity of rocks to grope blindly through dark and evil forests, and sometimes the yellow moon made mysterious twilight in the shadows. But always the Knight kept the Lady's had close in his and always he stepped forward firmly, shining eyes straight ahead, for even in the gloom all was sharp-cut and clear to his vision. Can someone tell me who wrote this and where I can find the complete work? Thank you.

Tennyson's "Charge" - propaganda or anti-war?
I always felt that Tennyson's "Charge of the Light Brigade" was an anti-war poem. A friend argues the opposite, stating that the poem reflected the jingoistic nature and sentimentality of Victorian England. What do you think? Half a league, half a league, Half a league onward, All in the valley of Death Rode the six hundred. "Forward, the Light Brigade! "Charge for the guns!" he said: Into the valley of Death Rode the six hundred. "Forward, the Light Brigade!" Was there a man dismay'd? Not tho' the soldier knew Someone had blunder'd: Their's not to make reply, Their's not to reason why, Their's but to do and die: Into the valley of Death Rode the six hundred. Cannon to right of them, Cannon to left of them, Cannon in front of them Volley'd and thunder'd; Storm'd at with shot and shell, Boldly they rode and well, Into the jaws of Death, Into the mouth of Hell Rode the six hundred. Flash'd all their sabres bare, Flash'd as they turn'd in air, Sabring the gunners there, Charging an army, while All the world wonder'd: Plunged in the battery-smoke Right thro' the line they broke; Cossack and Russian Reel'd from the sabre stroke Shatter'd and sunder'd. Then they rode back, but not Not the six hundred. Cannon to right of them, Cannon to left of them, Cannon behind them Volley'd and thunder'd; Storm'd at with shot and shell, While horse and hero fell, They that had fought so well Came thro' the jaws of Death Back from the mouth of Hell, All that was left of them, Left of six hundred. When can their glory fade? O the wild charge they made! All the world wondered. Honor the charge they made, Honor the Light Brigade, Noble six hundred.
