Alfred  Tennyson and Robert Browning :

Hello reader.....

Here I put my blog on Talk on Alfred Tennyson and Robert Browning. The blog task is given by vaidehi Haryani Click here to read our ma'am blog....

Alfred Tennyson and Robert Browning are both prominent and prominent figures of the Victorian era and are known as representative poets of the era. The period from 1832 to 1901 is known as the era of the Victorian period. Alfred Tennyson and Robert Browning belong to the Victorian era and have a prominent position as a pre-eminent poet of their age. Both poets use new techniques and styles in poetry writing. But both of these poets adopt their own style in their writings.

So, let's talk about in details....

Alfred Tennyson (6August 1809-6 October 1892) :






Alfred, Lord Tennyson, the perfect Alfred Tennyson, the first Baron Tennyson of Aldworth and Freshwater, an English poet often regarded as the principal representative of the Victorian era in poetry. He was born in 1884 in Pierre. Tennyson was the fourth of 12 children, born into an old Lincolnshire family. More than any other author of the Victorian era, Tennyson was the embodiment of his age, revealing both to his contemporary and modern readers. On his own day, he was accompanied by the so-called Queen Victoria and Prime Minister William Gladstone - one of the three most famous living persuaders whose fame was written by no other poet in English. Alfred Tennyson was the poet laureate of Great Britain and most famous during Queen Victoria's reign and as a British poet. For over half a century Tennyson was not only a man and a poet, he was a voice, the voice of the whole people reflecting their doubts and their faith, their grief and their victory.



Robert Browning (7May 1812-12Dec 1889) :




Robert Browning was an English poet and playwright. His mastery of the famous monologue made him a Victorian poet. His poems are known for their satire, characterization, dark humor, social commentary, historical historical settings and challenging vocabulary and syntax. He is considered an age-wise and philosophical poet. One of Browning's most critically respected poems comes from the monumental Child's Fold to the Dark Tower. Also the early part of Robert Browning's creative life was spent in comparative obscurity, he is regarded as the most important English poet of the Victorian period. His dramatic monologues and psychological epic epic, The Ring and the Book, a novel in verse have established him as a children's author, as he is included in a poem, "The Piper of Hamlin", almost as one in Bells and Pomegranate.


Comparative study between Alfred Tennyson and Robert Browning :

Browning focuses on the mentality of his outrageous characters and seeks to examine the inwardness of such characters in his writings. Browning tries to understand human nature, religion and society properly. It is the internal psychology of the characters.


Tennyson draws material from external specific realities, ideas, and objects. Browning systematically depicts the essence of a character while Tennyson emphasizes the importance of motivating and affirming a certain mood.


One Another significant difference between the poems of Alfred Tennyson and Robert Browning is in the nature of their expression. Browning writing is always upbeat, but Tennyson's expression tone is usually melancholic where it gives a touch of nostalgia. His poetic concerns are rarely related. Tennyson remembers the conscious mind's atmosphere through ornate language.


 Tennyson uses many topics, from the local conditions to the atmospheric observations, as the source of his poetry. Whereas, Browning takes on unethical character and challenges us to seek moral excellence.Tennyson and Browning are important Victorian poets, they differ in background and style. Browning is considered to be the most innovative of the two poets because of its unusual syntax, but indeed under its genre of melphorous and fluid surface, Tennyson is perhaps even more radical innovative.


Thanking you.....
