  Henry Hallam - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
If Hallam ever deviated from perfect fairness, it was in the tacit assumption that the 19th century theory of the constitution was the right theory in previous centuries, and that those who departed from it on one side or the other were in the wrong.
Hallam is generally described as a "philosophical historian." The description is justified not so much by any philosophical quality in his method as by the nature of his subject and his own temper.
Hallam is a philosopher to this extent that both in political and in literary history he fixed his attention on results rather than on persons.

Arthur Hallam encouraged Tennyson to write and publish poetry, claiming, in a notorious review of Tennyson's second volume, Poems, Chiefly Lyrical (1830) in the Englishman's Magazine, that Tennyson's poetry represented a new development, the poetry of 'sensation'.
Hallam was right, however, in recognising the originality in the “vivid, picturesque delineation of objects” in poems like 'Mariana' and 'Recollections of the Arabian Nights', and the peculiar skill with which they are “fused…in a medium of strong emotion”.
In the failure of that kingdom, largely through the failure of King Arthur's marriage, it touched on fears of breakdown at the heart of society and the erosion of traditional relations between the sexes.
