Alfred Tennyson (1809-1892) was a widely celebrated English poet, awarded the Poet Laureate following the death of William Wordsworth during Queen Victoria’s reign. His work spans the famous ‘The Charge of the Light Brigade’, ‘Maud and Idylls of the King’ and ‘In Memoriam A.H.H’, the origin to the iconic English language quote ‘tis better to have loved and lost / than never to have loved at all’. References to his work today appear in countless songs, books and films, such as Sandra Bullock’s ‘The Blind Side’. Tennyson remains today one of the most popular British poets.
