Alfred Lord Tennyson
Alfred Tennyson, First Baron Tennyson is an English poet. He is the award-winning poet of most of Queen Victoria's dynasties and remains one of Britain's most beloved poets. In 1829, Tennyson received the Prime Minister's Gold Medal at Cambridge for one of his early works, "Timbuktu". He published his first solo poetry collection, Poems Chiefly Lyrical in 1830. "Claribel" and "Mariana", still some of Tennyson's most famous poems, are included in this volume. Although criticized by some critics for being overly sentimental, his verses quickly became popular and attracted Tennyson's attention to famous writers of the time, including Samuel. Taylor Coleridge. Tennyson's early poetry, with its medievalism and powerful visualization, had a great influence on the Pre-Raphaelite Brothers. Tennyson also excelled at writing short lyrics, such as "Break, Break, Break", "The Charge of the Light Brigade", "Tears, Idle Tears" and "Crossing the Bar".
