	Alfred Tennyson, 1st Baron Tennyson - LoveToKnow 1911
		It is from 1842 that the universal fame of Tennyson must be dated; from the time of the publication of the two volumes he ceased to be a curiosity, or the darling of an advanced clique, and took his place as the leading poet of his age in England.
		Tennyson's health slowly became restored, and in 1846 he was hard at work on The Princess; in the autumn of this year he took a tour in Switzerland, and saw great mountains and such "stateliest bits of landskip" for the first time.
		Tennyson does not excel each of these in his own special field, but he is often nearer to the particular man in his particular mastery than any one else can be said to be, and he has in addition his own field of supremacy.

		Through most of Tennyson's career, British authors could not obtain copyright for their books in the United States, but the prominent Boston publishing firm of Ticknor and Fields took special pride in being Tennyson's "authorized" American publisher.

	Alfred Tennyson
		Tennyson's grandfather naturally felt that it was hardly worth his while to keep Alfred and his two elder brothers at Cambridge when it was only too apparent that they were profiting little from their studies and showed no promise of ever being able to support themselves.
		Tennyson was in reality released from having to worry about money, but the habit of years was too much for him; for the rest of his life he complained constantly of his poverty, although his poetry had made him a rich man by the time of his death.
		Tennyson was thirty-seven years old and in delicate health, but she was a woman of iron determination; she took over the running of the externals of her husband's life, freeing him from the practical details at which he was so inept.

		Tennyson said of him that he was as near perfection as mortal man could be, and in ‘In Memoriam’ he makes his dead friend a type or example of the greater human race to come.
		Tennyson's long attachment to the Arthurian story (which Wordsworth, as well as Milton, had at one time considered as a subject), and the mingling of hesitation with a determination to make something of it, is roughly comparable.
		Tennyson thought 'Timbuctoo' was 'a wild and unmethodised performance', and indeed there is a notable difference between what the Spirit of Fable says about himself and man, and what he says about the loss of Timbuctoo, his latest throne.

	Alfred Lord Tennyson's Poetry
		Tennyson thinks his best, and is most anxious that others should regard as he does; and therefore it is that he would affect to make trifles of them.
		Tennyson reads the “Quarterly” and does as they bid him, with the most solemn face in the world—out goes this, in goes that, all is changed and ranged.
		Tennyson is the most picturesque figure, without affectation, that I ever saw; of middle-size, rather slouching, dressed entirely in fl, and with nothing white about him except the collar of his shirt, which methought might have been clean the day before.

	Alfred Lord Tennyson: A Brief Biography
		Alfred Tennyson was born August 6th, 1809, at Somersby, Lincolnshire, fourth of twelve children of George and Elizabeth (Fytche) Tennyson.
		Late in the 1830s Tennyson grew concerned about his mental health and visited a sanitarium run by Dr. Matthew Allen, with whom he later invested his inheritance (his grandfather had died in 1835) and some of his family's money.
		Tennyson suffered from extreme short-sightedness — without a monocle he could not even see to eat — which gave him considerable difficulty writing and reading, and this disability in part accounts for his manner of creating poetry: Tennyson composed much of his poetry in his head, occasionally working on individual poems for many years.
