Book Description
Excerpt from Memories of the Tennysons Born at the "Vicarage by the quarry," from whence the late Poet Laureate had led his bride; and going, each year of one's life, away from the cedared lawn and the terraced garden, the flowery meadows, and the silver Thames below the chalk cliff, to the sand hills of the Lincoln coast, the levels of the Lincoln marsh, the windmills of the Lincoln wold, and the cornfields in the shining fen, which Tennyson, in his boyhood, had known - it was inevitable that one who had been brought up on so much of his poems as a child could understand, should associate the scene of those annual holidays with thoughts of the Poet. Each year my father paid a visit to the Poet at Farringford, and one heard talk of Tennyson when he returned.

Book Description
Excerpt from Tennyson Remembrance Book: A Memorial for the Poet's Reader Friends Judged by conventional standards in these days of hurry, the life of Alfred Tennyson would seem to have been singularly unevent ful He was born in the flat Lincolnshire country of England, in the rectory of Somersby, on the sixth Of August, 1809, one year after Longfellow, two years after Whittier was born in 1807. His boyhood was passed at home, his education being almost entirely conducted by his father, a cultivated English clergyman. Apart from his home training he had four years at the grammar school of Louth and the regular university course at Cambridge. The rectory children were a baker's dozen, happy, precocious, and most Of them story writers or poetizers at an early age.

A Tennyson Primer

Languages : en
Pages : 230
Book Description
Excerpt from A Tennyson Primer: With a Critical Essay "That is the first money, my boy, that you've made by poetry, and, take my word for it, it will be the last." Perhaps the lines in the Poems by Two Brothers, be ginning, "There on the bier she sleeps," are an improved version of this early attempt. In his twelfth year he was busy on an epic in imitation of Scott, which ran to some thousand lines, and in his fifteenth he essayed a drama. Of the epic it is interesting to note that, in his father's judgment, it gave promise of a famous future. "If that boy dies," said Mr. Tennyson, "one of our greatest poets will have gone." After the village school came the grammar school at Louth, followed in its turn by home tuition. The changes hardly broke the tranquil, dreamy life spent by the boy, chiefly alone - for he was naturally of retiring disposition - or in long rambles with his favourite brother Charles. The news of Byron's death, in 1824, was the first wave of emotion from the outside world that touched him. "I thought," he said, "that everything was over and finished for every one - that nothing else mattered. I remember I walked out alone and carved 'Byron is dead!' into the sandstone." Two years later Alfred and Charles joined in a poetical venture, and put forth a small volume: but rather, it appears, in search of pocket-money than fame. A Louth bookseller, Jackson by name, was induced to give twenty pounds for the copyright of their juvenilia.
