After graduating from Oxford in 1844, with second class honours, he spent several years travelling and indulging an apparently frivolous interest in literature, only to surprise his friends and family with the publication of The Strayed Reveller, and Other Poems in 1849. This was followed, in 1852, by Empedocles on Etna, and Other Poems , and then, in 1853, by Poems , a collection that established Arnold as a leading poet of the day and that also included a Preface that was his first important publication in prose. Arnold married in 1851 and also began work in that year as one of 'Her Majesty's Inspectors of Schools'. He held this arduous job for thirty-five years, travelling widely both in England and abroad, and was, in addition, Professor of Poetry at Oxford from 1857 to 1867.

Matthew Arnold The Sea of Faith Was once, too, at the full, and round earth's shore Lay like the folds of a bright girdle furl'd.

Irving Babbitt on Matthew Arnold The Buried Life Youth and Calm Requiescat ... Dover Beach Matthew Arnold was a major Victorian poet, the principal English literary critic of his generation, an important commentator on society and culture, and an effective government official. His father was Thomas Arnold, the headmaster of Rugby School. After graduation from Oxford, Matthew Arnold went to London as a private secretary to a member of the government. In 1851 he was appointed an inspector of schools. For 35 years he visited teacher-training schools to assure that they met government standards. He also visited schools on the continent, writing several reports in which he urged the benefits of state support and centralized supervision of education. Arnold began his literary career in 1849 with a volume of poems

He was born at Laleham on Christmas Eve. He was the son of Dr. Thomas Arnold, the revered headmaster of Rugby; and he earned early recognition for his poetry as a student at that school. Arnold also studied at Balliol College, Oxford University under a classical scholarship. Instead of applying himself to any one subject, he read widely. He also read a great deal of Roman and Greek literature. He became a close friend of Arthur Hugh Clough.

English Aide Page d'accueil Expositions ... Avis importants Matthew Arnold (1822-1888) Matthew Arnold est un important poète et critique littéraire britannique du XIX e siècle. « The Scholar-Gypsy », « Rugby Chapel » et « Dover Beach » sont quelques-uns de ses poèmes. Arnold fait ses études à Rugby School, dont son père est le directeur, et à l'Université d'Oxford. Sa famille compte au nombre de ses amis le poète William Wordsworth. Bien que Matthew Arnold soit très respecté comme poète, critique littéraire et auteur de textes à caractère social, politique et religieux, l'écriture ne lui permet pas de gagner sa vie. Afin de subvenir à ses besoins et à ceux de sa famille, il occupe pendant la majeure partie de sa vie active un poste d'inspecteur gouvernemental des écoles. De 1857 à 1867, il enseigne aussi la poésie à Oxford. Mackenzie King se met à s'intéresser particulièrement à l'œuvre d'Arnold après avoir lu à voix haute quelques-uns de ses poèmes un soir, avec son amie Marjorie Herridge. « La lecture de cette poésie a éveillé toute ma nature [...]. Cette soirée m'a révélé une nouvelle âme, dont la pensée et l'expression sont caractérisées par une beauté intellectuelle et spirituelle d'un raffinement suprême. Je suis devenu un admirateur de Matthew Arnold », [Traduction] écrit King. (Journal, 7 septembre 1901) Dans l'introduction de son livre The Secret of Heroism , King cite un extrait du poème « Rugby Chapel ».

Français Help Home Exhibitions ... Important Notices Matthew Arnold (1822-1888) Matthew Arnold was a major nineteenth-century British poet and literary critic, whose poems include "The Scholar-Gypsy," "Rugby Chapel" and "Dover Beach." Arnold was educated at Rugby School, where his father was Headmaster, and at Oxford University. The poet William Wordsworth was a family friend. Although Matthew Arnold was greatly respected as a poet, a literary critic, and a writer on social, political and religious issues, he never earned his living by writing. To support himself and his family, he spent most of his working life as a government school inspector. He was also a professor of poetry at Oxford from 1857 to 1867. When King wrote The Secret of Heroism , he used a quotation from the poem "Rugby Chapel" as part of the introduction. King met Arnold's niece, Mrs. Humphry Ward, in 1899, and through her he met Arnold's granddaughter, Eleanor Whitridge (later Greenough, then Thwaites), who lived in the United States. King and Eleanor Whitridge became friends, and over the years she gave him many Matthew Arnold items – 29 autographed letters, mainly to members of the family, including one holograph letter from Matthew Arnold to his wife Frances Lucy Arnold, and four letters from his father, Dr. Thomas Arnold. These letters are now in the W.L. Mackenzie King Papers at the National Archives of Canada. Eleanor Whitridge also gave King a number of books by Arnold, some annotated. These are now in the National Library of Canada or in Laurier House.
