Tennyson, A: Tennyson -

Résumé :
Excerpt from Tennyson: Select Poems, Edited With Introduction and Notes

Tennyson so jealously shielded himself from the public gaze that, while he still lived, the world kurn only the outstanding events of his career; of his pri vate life, his opinions, and his character, only so much was known as the poems revealed. Thus he would have had it remain but realising that human curiosity must be satisfied, he placed at his son's disposal much of the valuable material which is now incorporated in the Memoir. Since the publication of this Life, various brief notices and personal recollections have appeared which assist us towards a fuller knowledge of Tennyson both as man and poet.
