丁尼生英文简介和尤利西斯扥翻译Ulysses

Alfred Tennyson, (6 August 1809 – 6 October 1892), much better known as "Alfred, Lord Tennyson," was Poet Laureate of the United Kingdom during much of Queen Victoria's reign and remains one of the most popular poets in the English language.Tennyson, Brow ning and Arnold are generally called “The Big Three” of Victorian poets. Among them, Tennyson was the most popular and gained the title of “poet of the people”. His reputation remained high until his death, declined in the early 20th century, and its rightly very high today.Tennyson was born in Somersby, Lincolnshire, a rector's son and fourth of 12 children. He derived from a middle-class line of Tennyson, but also had a noble and royal ancestry. Tennyson and two of his elder brothers were writing poetry in their teens, and a collection of poems by all three were published locally when Alfred was only 17.He entered Trinity College, Cambridge, in 1827, where he joined a secret society calledthe Cambridge Apostles. At Cambridge Tennyson met Arthur Henry Hallam, who became his closest friend. His first publication was a collection of "his boyish rhymes and those of his elder brother Charles" entitled Poems by Two Brothers published in 1827. In 1829 he was awardedthe Chancellor's Gold Medal at Cambridge for one of his first pieces, "Timbuctoo". He published his first solo collection of poems, Poems Chiefly Lyrical in 1830. Although decried by some critics as overly sentimental, his verse soon proved popular and brought Tennyson to the attention of well-known writers of the dayReturn to Lincolnshire and second publicationIn the spring of 1831, Tennyson's father died, requiring him to leave Cambridge before taking his degree. He returned to the rectory, where he was permitted to live for another six years, and shared responsibility for his widowed mother and the family. Arthur Hallam came to stay with his family during the summer and became engaged to Tennyson's sister. In 1833 Tennyson published his second book of poetry, which included his well-known poem, "The Lady of Shalott". The volume met heavy criticism, which so discouraged Tennyson that he did not publish again for ten years, although he did continue to write. That same year, Hallam died suddenly and unexpectedly after suffering a cerebral haemorrhage while on vacation in Vienna. Hallam's sudden and unexpected death in 1833 had a profound impact on Tennyson, and inspired several masterpieces. After an unwise investment in business ,Tennyson then moved to London.Third publicationIn 1842 while living modestly in London, Tennyson published two volumes of Poems, of which the first included works already published and the second was made up almost entirely of new poems. They met with immediate success. It was in 1850 that Tennyson reached the pinnacle ofhis career, finally publishing his masterpiece, In Memoriam A.H.H., dedicated to Hallam. Later the same year he was appointed Poet Laureate, succeeding William Wordsworth. In the same year (on 13 June), Tennyson married Emily Sellwood, whom he had known since childhood, in the village of Shiplake. They had two sons. Tennyson died on October 6, 1892 and was buried in the Poets' Corner in Westminster Abbey.Major works1. Poems by Two Brothers (the 1st collection of poems, 1827)《两兄弟诗集》2.

He is the firstmajor writer to express the awareness of the vast extent of geological time that has haunted human consciousness since Victorian scientists exposed the history of the earth’s crust.⏹Tennyson is a real artist. He has the natural power of linking visual pictures with musicalexpressions, and these two with the feelings. He has perfect control of the sound of English, and a sensitive ear, an excellent choice and taste of words. His poetry is rich in poetic images and melodious language, and noted for its lyrical beauty and metrical charm.⏹Tennyson is a moralist. He is closer to Pope and Gray than to, say, Browning. He is aclassical scholar with highly polished style, delicate tunes and faultless verbal rhythms.Although he attacks the evils of his time, especially money-worship, his attacks are most those of a moralist than of a radical reformer. His poetry is full of didacticism. He has made poetry the description of a beautiful and antique world, as if deliberately he is closing his eyes to the ugly industrialism of his own century. His own past, his country’s past, the past of mankind and the past of the world are the theme of his poetry.⏹Tennyson is a great poet of nature. He sees nature as the setting for performances andspectacles as intense and transitory as the emotions which sweep across the mind.Comment on Tennyson⏹Tennyson is the most representative poet of Victorian age. He has perfect control of thesound of English. His works are not only the products of the creative imagination of a poetic genius but also products of a long and rich English heritage.⏹Tennyson was severely criticized by Imagist poets in the early twentieth century for hisaffectation and wordiness.丁尼生尤利西斯诗歌中文翻译2007-12-01 16:52这太无谓——当一个闲散的君主，安居家中，在这嶙峋的岛国，我与年老的妻子相匹，颁布着不公的法律，治理野蛮的种族，——他们吃、睡、收藏，而不理解我。
