Victorian Celebrity Culture and Tennyson's Circle

Autor C. Boyce, P. Finnerty, A. Millim
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 oct 2013
Tennyson experienced at first hand the all-pervasive nature of celebrity culture. It caused him to retreat from the eyes of the world. This book delineates Tennyson's reluctant celebrity and its effects on his writings, on his coterie of famous and notable friends and on the ever-expanding, media-led circle of Tennyson's admirers.
