In this series, a contemporary poet selects and introduces a poet
of the past. By their choice of poems and by the personal and
critical reactions they express in their prefaces, the editors
offer insights into their own work as well as providing an
accessible and passionate introduction to some of the greatest
poets in our literature. Alfred, Lord Tennyson (1809-92) was born
in Somersby, Lincolnshire, the sixth of eleven children of a
clergyman. After a childhood marked by trauma, he went up to
Cambridge in 1828, where he met Arthur Hallam, whose premature
death had a lasting influence on Tennyson's life and writing. His
two volumes of Poems (1842) established him as the leading poet of
his generation, and of the Victorian period. He was created Poet
Laureate in 1850 and in 1883 accepted a peerage.
