Schow, H. W. (1998). Arnold’s “Dover beach.” Explicator, 57(1), 26. doi: 12085/129-0270518.
In this journal article, H. Wayne Schow identifies Arnold’s “pessimistic lamentation” to convey his thoughts on finding happiness in a faithless time. Schow proposes an interesting and enlightening connection between Arnold’s poem and Scripture. He suggests that certain lines in “Dover Beach” reflect the lines in Romans 8:39. Schow argues that Arnold is using a deliberate
grammatical construction to emphasizing the faithlessness around him, compared to Paul’s unwavering assurance.
