| | Arnold, Matthew. The Literary Criticism of Matthew Arnold |
 | | Arnold also believed that in his quest for the best a critic should not confine himself to the literature of his own country, but should draw substantially on foreign literature and ideas, because the propagation of ideas should be an objective endeavour. | | | Arnold's evaluations of the Romantic poets such as Wordsworth, Byron, Shelley, and Keats are landmarks in descriptive criticism, and as a poet-critic he occupies an eminent position in the rich galaxy of poet-critics of English literature. | | | Arnold's criticism of Vitet above illustrates his 'touchstone method'; his theory that in order to judge a poet's work properly, a critic should compare it to passages taken from works of great masters of poetry, and that these passages should be applied as touchstones to other poetry. |

| | Matthew Arnold and the Jesus Seminar |
| | Arnold was concerned with Christian experience since it, rather than the truth of dogmatical proposition, validated the teachings of the historical Jesus. | | | Arnold had given paramount significance to the apostle Paul as the one who combined Jesus’s Hebraism with Hellenism and, thus, set the example for all Christians of applying, in a free flow of thought, the best that is being thought in the world. | | | Arnold was particularly critical of David Friedrich Strauss in this regard, whose Life of Jesus had been translated into English by Mary Anne Evans (later, "George Eliot") in 1845 and published the following year. |

| | Wherein Arnold differed from the ordinary man of this type as well as from his contemporaries in general was in the completeness of his positivism. | | | Arnold did not, like Tennyson, accept the Victorian compromise; intellectually he is more firmly knit than Tennyson, superior to him, as he himself says, in being in 'the main movement of mind' of his epoch. | | | Arnold's main contention, however, can scarcely be said to have lost its force: that we are too much taken up with the quantity and not enough with the quality of our democracy. |

| | Matthew Arnold's "Dover Beach": An Introduction |
| | The study of literature, according to Arnold and his acolytes, was a holy pursuit of the "truth" contained within a select group of publications. | | | By reading Arnold's efforts to divorce the study of literature form contemporary events as a response to the class tensions in Britain and on the Continent, we can begin to understand the means by which it encodes political commentary in literary criticism. | | | In Arnold's poem, the speaker (not to be identified as Arnold himself, but rather as a fictional character) looks over the shore at Dover and reflects on the scene before him. |

| | Matthew Arnold |
| | Arnold's poems are more intelligent than those of Tennyson or Browning; he discusses the loss of religious faith and moral certainty better than any poet of his time. | | | Murray could have done more to bring out this parallel, but then again it is his refusal to indulge in such critical discussions which keeps his book to a sane length -- a virtue rare among literary biographies. | | | But, by the same token, many of his poems can seem like discussions, or arguments, forced into verse; they have far less musical beauty than the work of those other poets, and afford less simple pleasure in the reading. |

| | Arnold laments the impossiibility of faith in a world where science dictates what man is and ought to be. | | | To come back to the poem in question, when Arnold finally admits to himself and his new wife that his faith has drained away and there is nothing but violence, ignorance and blind stupidity in the world in which we find ouselves, I cannot for one moment interpret this as a juvenile statement. | | | And as we know, the majority of these worthy people, who sometimes pay some form of lip service to one god or another, do not Really think that some supernatural entity actually decides or influences which young woman and her little child will be destroyed in the inferno of a twin towers outrage. |

| | His best-known poems are probably "The Scholar-Gipsy"; "Thyrsis," considered one of the finest elegies in English; and "Sohrab and Rustum," a narrative poem, in tone a blend of the Homeric with the elegiac, based on an episode from the Shah-Nameh of the Persian poet Firdausi. | | | The Essays are bound together by a scheme of social rather than of purely literary criticism, as is apparent from the Preface, written in a vein of delicious irony and culminating unexpectedly in the well-known poetically phrased tribute to Oxford. | | | It is perhaps true, however, that as Sir Edmund Chambers says, "in a comparison between the best works of Matthew Arnold and that of his six greatest contemporaries. |

| | This zest in the totality of life leads Browning to probe the souls of characters with whom poets as a rule are not concerned: the knave, the half-savage with his peculiar view of God, the lover who murdered his beloved because she would not link her life permanently to his. | | | The sea, at ebb tide, turns the thought of the poet from a contemplation of its own melancholy beauty to a contemplation of the “sea of faith,” which was once too full,” and this in turn leads him to reflections upon the condition of the world and his own relationship with it. | | | It is not a dramatic show of feeling like that of Byron, whom Arnold characterized as bearing through Europe “the pagnant of a bleeding heart.” In “Dover Beach” Arnold is voicing the cry of every personvictorian or modernwho has lost his way in the profound gloom of spiritual confusion, doubt, and flight from reality. |

| | Thus the Anglican Arnold regards a Roman Catholic monastery, and waits ‘forlorn’, with ‘nowhere yet to rest his head’, in a mood less spirited perhaps than Nietzsche’s, but voicing a moment of historic doubt, as Eliot thought[14], a perplexity in the face of the new positivism: | | | Anthony Kenny remarks that Arnold at this point ‘offers human love as the only consolation’, and comments that it is an inconsistent consolation:[4] ‘if there is no love and no certitude in the real world, how can one rely on the truth of the beloved?’ | | | The sea of faith in Matthew Arnold’s great metaphor, flows as well as ebbs; but the tide that returns is not quite the same as the tide that went out. It will rise equally high; and there is continuity. |

Other well-known poems, such as "Dover Beach," link the problem of isolation with what Arnold saw as the dwindling faith of his time. | | | Throughout his thirty-five years in this position Arnold developed an interest in education, an interest which fed into both his critical works and his poetry. | | | Arnold became the first professor to lecture in English rather than Latin. |
