Paperback. Tennysons interest in Goethes masterpiece began around 1824. It reached a remarkable level of intensity in 183334, and continued, intermittently, until 1855. The powerful influence that Faust exerted on his writings was mediated, most notably, by the translations of Abraham Hayward (180184), and it was often combined with that of a number of closely related works, by authors including Schiller, Byron, Shelley and Carlyle. This book reveals for the first time that Goethes masterpiece is a presence in at least two dozen of Tennysons poems, including several that are part of the canon of British literature. Shows that Faust was a central influence on Tennysons creative life. Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability.
