Arthur Hugh Clough – angielski poeta.

Był utalentowanym lirykiem dającym w swej twórczości świadectwo niepewności i religijnych rozterek czasów wczesno-wiktoriańskich, a także poszukiwań trwałych wartości moralno-etycznych. Był autorem poematu narracyjnego pisanego heksametrem The Bothie of Tober-na-Vuolich , epistolarnej powieści wierszem Ambarvailia oraz niedokończonego poematu faustowskiego Dipsychus .

Pochowany na Cimitero degli Inglesi we Florencji.

W ironicznym wierszu The Latest Decalogue wypunktował charakterystyczny dla społeczeństwa kapitalistycznego zanik wartości moralnych i kult zysku i pieniądza:

Thou shalt have one God only; who

Would be at the expense of two?

These blameless happy souls suspect,
They only study the disease,
Alas, who live not to detect.”

The Bothie of Tober-na-vuolich.

“Go; say not in thy heart, And what then were it accomplished,
Were the wild impulse allayed, what were the use or the good!
Go, when the instinct is stilled, and when the deed is accomplished,
What thou bast done and shalt do, shall be declared to thee then.
Go with the sun and the stars, and yet evermore in thy spirit
Say to thyself: It is good: yet is there better than it.
This that I see is not all, and this that I do is but little;
Nevertheless it is good, though there is better than it.”
