This 'states rather dogmatically that any criticism which accepts Lord Tennyson as a thinker is out of date/ and Mr Gladstone proceeds: 'I venture to demur to this proposition and to con- tend that the author of In Memoriam (for example) shows a capacity which entitles him to a high place among the thinkers of the day. ' Now it may be asked whether this de- murrer does not concede too much to the Devil's Advocate of the Pall Mall Gazette. ' Thinker ' is taken as if it were a simple unequivocal ...term. What it meant exactly as used by those two parties would be hard to say; but the Index to that volume of the Nineteenth Century, which contains articles by Professor Huxley, Mr John Morley and TENNYSON 21 the Duke of Argyll, suggests some of the names, * the thinkers of the day, ' with whom Tennyson is to be ranked or not to be ranked, according to one or the other opinion.
