Unrevealed Romanticism in the Poetry of Matthew Arnold

Author(s): Dr. Satish G Joshi

Abstract:

Mostly, Matthew Arnold is known as a Melancholy poet or classical poet. No doubt, there is a sense of classicism and melancholy in his poetry. But the critics of his age. Made him limited by expressing their views on his classicism and melancholy. It is injustice towards Matthew Arnold. It is said that Victorians are materialistic which is hated or protested by Matthew Arnold. Hence, they praise Tennyson and other materialistic poets. But Matthew Arnold was not popularized deliberately as a Romanticist. If his romanticism was exposed, he would have excelled even the poets of romantic age. Most of his poems are romantic and most of the events in some poems are romantic. Hence it needs his Romanticism to be revealed.
