ALFRED LORD TANNYSON
Alfred Tennyson, 1st Baron Tennyson FRS (6 August 1809  6 October 1892)
was a British poet. He was the Poet Laureate of Great Britain and Ireland during
much of Queen Victoria's reign and remains one of the most popular British
poets. In 1829, Tennyson was awarded the Chancellor's Gold Medal at
Cambridge for one of his first pieces, "Timbuktu". He published his first solo
collection of poems, Poems Chiefly Lyrical in 1830. "Claribel" and "Mariana",
which remain some of Tennyson's most celebrated poems, were included in this
volume. 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 day, including Samuel Taylor Coleridge. Tennyson's early poetry, with its
medievalism and powerful visual imagery, was a major influence on the
Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood.
