In Memoriam (1850) by Alfred Tennyson, is an elegy for his Cambridge friend Arthur Henry Hallam, who died of cerebral haemorrhage in Vienna, at the age of twenty-two years, in 1833.
As a sustained exercise in lyrical verse, Tennyson's poetical reflections extend beyond the meaning of the death of Hallam. In Memoriam also explores the random cruelty of Nature seen from the conflicting perspectives of materialist science and the declining Christian faith of the Victorian era.
