St. Simeon Stylites (poem)

''St Simeon Stylites'' is a poem written by Alfred Tennyson, 1st Baron Tennyson in 1833 and published in his 1842 collection of poetry. The poem describes the actions of St Simeon Stylites, a Christian ascetic saint who goes counts his various physical acts in hopes that he has earned his place in heaven. It captures Tennyson's feelings following the death of a close friend, Arthur Hallam, and contains feelings of self-loathing and regret. The work has ironic overtones that give it the appearance of a satirical work.
==Background==
In 1833, Tennyson's close friend Arthur Hallam died. He was deeply affected by this death and many of his poems written soon after contained feelings of self-loathing and regret, including ''St Simeon Stylites''.〔Thorn 1992 pp. 124, 196, 514〕 The poem also contained a satirical response to religious asceticism in general, which is possibly related to his feelings about his aunt Mary Bourne and her Calvinistic views. ''St Simeon Stylites'' was completed by autumn 1833 and was circulated among Tennyson's fellows at Cambridge University.〔Hill 1971 p. 66〕
The poem was later published in his 1842 collection of poetry.〔Thorn 1992 p. 514〕 The poem's combination of dark humour, imagery and sympathy for the hero was unique in relationship to the previous works Tennyson published before 1842.〔Hughes 1988 p. 108〕 Tennyson, at the end of his life in 1892, returned to the idea and followed ''St Simeon Stylites'' with the poem ''St Telemachus''.〔Thorn 1992 pp. 124, 196〕
