English author often regarded as the chief representative of the Victorian age in poetry. He succeeded Wordsworth as Poet Laureate in 1850; he was appointed by Queen Victoria and served 42 years. His works were melancholic, and reflected the moral and intellectual values of his time, which made them especially vulnerable for later critic. = Alfred, Lord Tennyson 960 – Remembered = In Memoriam 961 – Nice royal dreams = Idylls of the King 962 – Marine imagination = Sea Dreams 963 – Daughter of James II of England = Queen Mary 964 – Proclaimer = Harold 965 – Spring = The Promise of May 966 – A beer and a bird of pray = The Falcon 967 – Something to win = The Cup 968 – Old and wise = The Ancient Sage 969 – Easily equipped mil unit's assault = Charge of the Light Brigade Last edited by Grey_Wolf : 04-25-2007 at 02:15 AM. |

American novelist and screenwriter, best known for his paperback pulp novels dealing with the criminally insane. He knew that he was not destined for big success, but before he died he told his wife to protect his manuscripts and copyrights, anticipating posthumous fame. He was right, ten years after his death. His dark, violent view of the world has inspired such filmmakers as Sam Peckinpah, Stephen Frears, Bertrand Tavernier, and Quentin Tarantino.
