In his seminal poem ''Ulysses'', Alfred Lord Tennyson describes an aged hero who, beset in his youth by countless troubles, finds he cannot now live in comfort and peace, but instead must seek adventure. Curiously, the adventure that Tennyson's Ulysses seeks may not be the blood of war; rather, the text seems to suggest that Tennyson's Ulysses seeks to pass beyond the farthest reaches of human ''though'' ("My mariners, Souls that have toil'd, and wrought, and thought with me"), reflecting the [[Victorian Age|Victorian]] concern with pushing the limits of human knowledge.
