		Alfred, Lord Tennyson, from In Memorium ^Votes:0 Alfred, Lord Tennyson, excerpt from In Memoriam , LV-LVI The wish, that of the living whole No life may fail beyond the grave, Derives it not from what we have The likest God within the soul? Are God and Nature then at strife, That Nature lends such evil dreams? So careful of the type she seems, So careless of the single life, That I, considering everywhere Her secret meaning in her deeds, And finding that of fifty seeds She often brings but one to bear, . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . "So careful of the type?" but no. From scarped cliff and quarried stone She cries, "A thousand types are gone; I care for nothing, all shall go. "Thou makest thine appeal to me. I bring to life, I bring to death; The spirit does but mean the breath. I know no more." And shall he, Man, her last work, who Read More Go to Site

		Neurotic Poets: Dante Gabriel Rossetti ^Votes:0 Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1828-1882) abriel Charles Dante Rossetti was born in London on May 12, 1828 to an English mother and Italian father. His mother, Frances Mary Lavinia Polidori was the sister of Byron's physician John Polidori, who had committed suicide at a young age. His father, Gabriele, was a literary scholar who was obsessed with the works of Dante and spoke mainly in Italian. Young Gabriel therefore spoke Italian as well as English from a very early age. When he was born, Gabriel already had an older sister Maria. His younger brother William and sister Christina were the next additions to the family. Early on, Rossetti demonstrated literary and artistic talent and aspirations. One family legend has it that in 1834 a local milkman was amazed as he watched six-year old Gabriel cr Read More Go to Site

		The Tennyson Page ^Votes:0 We still look to the earlier masters for supreme excellence in particular directions: to Wordsworth for sublime philosophy, to Coleridge for ethereal magic, to Byron for passion, to Shelley for lyric intensity, to Keats for richness. Tennyson does not excel each of these in his own special field, but he is often nearer to the particular man in his particular mastery than anyone else can be said to be, and he has in addition his own special field of supremacy. What this is cannot be easily defined; it consists, perhaps, in the beauty of the atmosphere which Tennyson contrives to cast around his work, molding it in the blue mystery of twilight, in the opaline haze of sunset: this atmosphere, suffused over his poetry with inestimable skill and with a tact rarely at fault, produces an almost u Read More Go to Site

		WebMuseum: Rossetti, Dante Gabriel ^Votes:0 Rossetti, Dante Gabriel The poet, painter, and designer Dante Gabriel Rossetti , b. Gabriel Charles Dante Rossetti, May 12, 1828, d. Apr. 9, 1882, was a cofounder of the PRE-RAPHAELITES, a group of English painters and poets who hoped to bring to their art the richness and purity of the medieval period. The son of the exiled Italian patriot and scholar Gabriele Rossetti and a brother of the poet Christina Rossetti, Dante showed literary talent early, winning acclaim for his poem The Blessed Damozel (1847) before he was 20 years old. As a student at the Royal Academy Antique School (1845-47), he met William Holman Hunt and John Millais, with whom he launched the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood in 1848. Rossetti's first Pre-Raphaelite paintings in oils, based on religious themes and with elements Read More Go to Site
