Description
Tennyson was renowned for his treatment of nature in poetry, and in Tennyson: As a Student and Poet of Nature, eminent English scientist and astronomer Norman Lockyer takes a comprehensive look at Tennyson's views on the natural world. Perhaps no one else in the early twentieth century was more qualified to evaluate the scientific aspects of Tennyson's works than Lockyer; not only was he credited with discovering helium in 1868, but he also contributed numerous important publications and founded the preeminent scientific journal Nature. Along with his wife, Winifred, Lockyer spent decades compiling Tennyson passages on everything from the Milky Way to the breaking of ocean waves, and in this 1910 volume, he demonstrates the impressive scope of Tennyson's scientific knowledge through insightful examination of these passages.
