Excerpt from The Reaction Against Tennyson When he died, in 1870, Dickens was still at the height of his fame. The public idolized him, and critical readers, though they had a good deal to say against him, did not question his greatness. Some twenty years later, however, a decided change was visible, chiefly among such readers and especially among the younger men of letters. It was more than a cooling of enthusiasm: it was a strong reaction. Certain defects of the novelist were keenly felt, and all the more keenly because it seemed that his immense popularity had been largely due to them. To decry Dickens, even to protest that you could not read him, became a fashion and a mark of being up to date in taste. In this reaction two curious traits might be noticed. One was the belief that Dickens's faults were a new discovery and had never been suspected in his lifetime. The other was still stranger, and much more important. The dislike of his faults appeared often to kill the power of perceiving and enjoying his virtues. Because you could not abide the death of Paul Dombey or Little Nell, you listened to Sam Weller and Mrs. Gamp without a smile. This was the nadir of Dickens's star. After a time it rose again. The wholesome work of reaction was finished. In the more literary sections of the public, and among men of letters, there is now a fairly general agreement about him. His defects, by no means unimportant in quality and quantity, are simply taken for granted; but his astonishing genius is fully recognized, and his almost inexhaustible creations are as keenly enjoyed as they were fifty years ago. The best critique of his works written in the first decade of this century came, not from an old stager, but from Mr. Chesterton. And now, if you are unable to read Dickens and yet wish to be in the literary swim, you must either hold your tongue about him or tell lies about yourself. This story, down to a certain stage in it, has exactly repeated itself in the case of Tennyson - a writer less astonishing in genius and much less faulty in art.

During the present century Tennyson's poetic reputation has passed through a whole revolution of criticism and taste. When a general reaction against Victorianism set in, it was Tennyson's very domination of his age and his power to express its values which caused a revulsion against his poetry and his style. More recently there has been a revival of critical and scholarly interest in his work and an appreciation of qualities in it besides those which most appealed to his contemporaries. Mr Southam's essay discusses this critical revaluation, relates the poems to Tennyson's long career and pays particular attention to his development of the dramatic narrative or monologue. This essay replaces Number 83 by F. L. Lucas. The author, formerly a Lecturer in English at the University of London, is Editorial Director of Routledge and Kegan Paul, Ltd; he has written books and articles on Shakespeare, Milton, Gibbon, Keats, Jane Austen and T. S. Eliot.

The poet's reputation has weathered even the most vitriolic attempts to discredit both the man and his writings; and as criticism of the late twentieth century demonstrates, Tennyson's claim to pre-eminence among the Victorians is now unchallenged."
