Tuckerman, Frederick Goddard (1821–1873)| US poet. Rediscovered as a poet in 1931, he is known for his sonnets and narrative poetry, notably The Cricket, a study of the relationship of man and nature. Tuckerman was born in Boston, Massachusetts. He studied at Harvard (1841) and at the Law School there (1839–42); although admitted to the bar in 1844, he practised only briefly. A wealthy man, he retired to Greenfield, Massachusetts, to study literature, botany, and astronomy (1847). |
