        <description><![CDATA[The notion of delayed gratification and a sense of struggle is evident in Tennyson's poem.  His depiction of the Homer's character is one where constant struggle and subjugation of one's happiness is evident.  The closing line of "to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield" can be seen in the Victorian light of repressed and deferred joy.  Tennyson's protagonist is incapable of enjoying his life and the existence no longer tethered to...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[In Tennyson's poem 'Ulysses' we see the Victorian pre-occupation with progress, work, advancement and perseverance. This was a period of great social and technical advancement following hard on the heels of the transformation of England's transport network through the coming of the railways and canals. This meant it was now easy to transport the vast quanities of products from the textile mills,or coal from the mines, to ports and docks to be...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Ulysses grows restless, fueling his discontent. His thoughts begin to stray from staying home to enjoy life with his family. His thoughts also steer him from the desire to rule his kingdom. Ulysses then begins to relive his heroic travels. Even though he is finally home, the call of the open sea and a chance to rekindle his younger days or the zeal he once had for life, is something he can not pass up. Telemachus proves to be a fit person to...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[One of the most relevant parallels to modern life is that selfishness that is in our society today. Although it is not a popular view, some critics have said that Ulysses is extremely selfish for leaving his wife and child behind for adventures in far-off places.  I tend to agree with this assertion as a mother of two children, which jades my view in many ways; however, the flip side of that is that Odysseus can also be seen as someone who is...]]></description>
