Tennyson and the Doom of Romanticism

Abstract

Herbert Tucker's Browning's Beginnings: The Art of Disclosure (Minneapolis: U of Minnesota P, 1980) established his reputation as a first-rate Browning scholar; his more recent book Tennyson and the Doom of Romanticism (Cambridge: Harvard UP, 1988) not only has added another Victorian poet to his domain of expertise, it also establishes his pre-eminence among Victorianists in general. Tucker's Tennyson and the Doom of Romanticism is nominally a book about the development of Tennyson's style and career from the years 1809 through 1855 examined as a response to Tennyson's personal sense of inevitability as doom and the cultural and vocational sense of doom which resulted
