The Kraken' is a sonnet by English poet Alfred Lord Tennyson, first published in 1830 in Tennyson's Poems, Chiefly Lyrical.
The poem's subject explores the legend of the Kraken, a giant sea monster that supposedly swallowed ships off the coast of Norway. The creature probably originated from the spotting of gigantic squid and was first identified in A History of Norway (1752). The creature is also said to be a biblical reference influenced by Milton's Paradise Lost. In Book One, line 42, Milton describes 'There Leviathan / Hugest of living creatures, on the deep / Stretch'd like a promontory.' This creature is said to refer scripturally to a Crocodile (appearing in the Book of Job 41:1), a sea serpent (referenced in Isaiah 27:1), or a whale (referenced in the Book of Psalms, 124:6).
Tennyson is also thought to have been influenced by nineteenth-century discoveries in geology that called into question the biblical creation of the Earth. In 1822, English geologist and paleontologist Gideon Mantell discovered dinosaur skeletons in Tigate Forest in Sussex. This together with his discovery of the Iguanodon in 1825 challenged a previously held belief that, based on estimates of Old Testament prophets, the world had been created in 4004 B.C. The poem thus imagines a creature pieced together from theories of scripture, mythology, and natural history.
