 The Apocalypse in Victorian Literature
Mary Wilson Carpenter, Professor of English Emeritus, Queens College (Ontario), and George P. Landow, Professor of English and Art History, Brown University
Using allusions from the Gospels and contemporary prophetic readings of the Psalms, Tennyson thus strongly suggests that one should avoid immersing oneself in apocalyptics and instead confine oneself to the clearer portions of scripture as guides for living on this earth.
The poet's closing allusions, like those to the Book of Revelation in the visions of Percival, Bors, and Launcelot, display a detailed knowledge of apocalyptics being used, at least in part, to attack what he believes to be an excessive concentration upon them.
