Autoren-Porträt von Matthew Arnold
Matthew Arnold, born on December 24, 1822, in Laleham, Middlesex, England, was a seminal Victorian figure. He was not only famous as a poet but also as a cultural critic, a profession inspired by his father, Thomas Arnold, a noted headmaster of Rugby School. Following in his father's intellectual footsteps, Matthew Arnold became an influential voice through his works that dissected society, religion, and education. His scholarly pursuits afforded him the position of an inspector of schools, a role that allowed him to foster educational reform in Britain. Arnold's literary style, characterized by a serene and eloquent tenor, often grappled with the tumult of modernity and the dichotomy between the self and society. 'Culture and Anarchy,' one of his pivotal works, delves into this fray, positing culture as the antidote to the chaos of societal transformation during the Victorian era. It is a dissection of the principles of culture - its purposes, its potential to better society, and its role in navigating the currents of change. Arnold's advocacy for culture as a means to achieve perfection, a recurring theme across his work, has left an indelible mark on literary and cultural criticism. Matthew Arnold passed away on April 15, 1888, leaving behind a legacy underscored through his incisive examination of the human condition amidst the industrial and societal upheavals of his time.
