 RPO -- Matthew Arnold : Dover Beach
Arnold visited Dover with his new bride, Frances Lucy Wightman, in late June 1851 (they had married on June 10) and again on October 8 in that year, facts that have led others independently to date the poem's composition at that time.
When Arnold looks out a window onto Dover beach, he instead hears the "grating roar" caused by the waves of the English Channel as they strike the shoreline at the base of the great chalk cliffs; and he thinks of the "mournful roar" of which Sophocles wrote in Antigone.
Perhaps on the model of Robert Browning's dramatic monologues, "Dover Beach" might express what typical well-educated newlywed couples, the sacrament of marriage still echoing in their memories, might feel in the privacy of their room, far from priests and relatives with unexceptional dogmas.

 Matthew Arnold's "Dover Beach": An Introduction
By reading Arnold's efforts to divorce the study of literature form contemporary events as a response to the class tensions in Britain and on the Continent, we can begin to understand the means by which it encodes political commentary in literary criticism.
Arnold's "Dover Beach" (like Thomas Gray's "Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard", Laetitia Elizabeth Landon's "Felicia Hemans", and Robert Browning's "My Last Duchess") is a dramatic monologue, in which the unnamed speaker addresses an implied but silent listener.
In Arnold's poem, the speaker (not to be identified as Arnold himself, but rather as a fictional character) looks over the shore at Dover and reflects on the scene before him.
