Swinburne called him a bad poet, Tennyson called him dull,
Saintsbury called him thin. John Schad celebrates Clough the
anti-poet, a loving laureate of the extraordinary dull, who is so
thin we can see through, or beyond him. Clough, argues Schad, never
gets in the way of the world, or worlds, of which he writes. And
these worlds are many: ranging from the orthodox world of the
Anglican Oxford that Clough famously abandons, through the
turbulent worlds of Paris and Rome that Clough visits in the wake
of the revolutionary events of 1848, to the quietly desperate world
of Clough's final years. For Schad, though, Clough's defining world
is the very strange world of continental thought, a world which
makes him a most un-Victorian Victorian.
