Trivia: Who wrote “Memoriam A.H.H.,” a poem about love and loss?
Lord Tennyson
William Blake
Lord Byron
William Shakespeare
Correct Answer: Lord Tennyson
So why is this answer correct? : Published in 1850, Lord Tennyson’s poem “In Memoriam A.H.H.” features the famous phrase (as part of a larger poem), “’Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.” It was likely written about his friendship with fellow English poet Arthur Henry Hallam, who suffered a tragic death in 1833.
