Excerpt from Charles Kingsley to James Thomson
The poets treated in the following pages are those born between the years 1818 and 1836 - a period of great unrest in public life and of great variety in poetic output.
In this connection the Editor has an unusually long list of acknowledgments to make. He has to thank Messrs. Macmillan & Co. for permission to print from the latest text of the late Charles Kingsley's poems, and for a similar favour with regard to the poems of the late Matthew Arnold.
