Synopsis
This book collects the poetry of Matthew Arnold, a Victorian literary figure who found fame with his 1849 debut. Arnold led a double life, as it were. By day, he worked as an inspector of schools; by night, he was an extraordinary poet whose literary genius critiqued the social, political and religious landscape of his time. His preferred expression of that critique was through poetry, of which this book is a remarkable collection, reflecting his struggles with his faith, and his relationships. Among the themes he examines are morality, nature, and human failure. Particularly noteworthy are his poems of loss and longing such as Rugby Chapel, The Scholar Gipsy , and Dover Beach. Arnold's reflections on life and faith speak to all those searching for understanding and strength in their own lives.
