EP13 – Beyond the Sunset | Tennyson, Ulysses

Alfred, Lord Tennyson, Ulysses.  Homer tells of how the mighty king of Ithaca arrived home after twenty years of war and wandering.  However, in Tennyson’s monologue, one of the best-loved poems of the nineteenth century, we hear that he is restless and longs for the companionship and adventure that had come to define him.

We love hearing from all of you. Please email us at [email protected].
