It was Alfred Lord Tennyson. He was considered to be the spokesman of the Victorian Age. Also known as the Poet of Victorian Compromise though he accepts scientific development but also notes decline of moral values that once dominated the Victorian Age. His use of Greek myths is for the purpose of describing the people, manners and beliefs of the Victorian Age. Majority of his management of mythological stories show the English people’s character and is not just about the Greeks.
