Tennyson's Memoriam and Arnold's To Marguerite Nature Picture - continued and Dover Beach The two poets who used rich natural paintings during the Victorian era were Alfred, Lord Tennyson and Matthew Arnold.

Tennyson was only 24 years old when his best friend Arthur Henry Haarlem died suddenly. Tennyson will write a poem devoted to Haarlem in the next decade and publish it as "Mourning" (SparkNote 1) in 1850. Haarlem's death will seriously hurt Tennyson's religious beliefs and encourage him to solve these questions through exploration of death, especially Harlan's long mourning to his long poem. He sometimes asks religion, but he also holds doubts about science. However, Tennyson believes that evolution is progressing, I am concerned about the conflict with this biblical creationism and believe that despite scientific discoveries it is necessary to maintain faith in God It is.
