Tom Arnold was een Engelse literatuurwetenschapper wiens leven werd gekenmerkt door een zoektocht naar betekenis buiten de conventionele Victoriaanse samenleving. Na een mislukte poging om boer te worden in Nieuw-Zeeland, vestigde hij zich op Tasmanië, waar hij als schoolinspecteur werkte. Zijn wetenschappelijke bijdragen omvatten de redactie van belangrijke literaire werken, zoals Beowulf. Arnold doorliep verschuivingen in religieuze overtuigingen en carrière, en keerde uiteindelijk terug om Engelse literatuur te doceren in Dublin, waar zijn invloed zich uitstrekte tot toekomstige generaties, waaronder James Joyce.
