Poems of Tennyson: Including: The Princess, in Memoriam, Maud, Four Idylls of the King, Enoch Arden, Etc. (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781025915456)

"Poems of Tennyson 1829-1868" is a comprehensive collection of works by Alfred, Lord Tennyson, one of the most celebrated figures of the Victorian era. This volume brings together the definitive poems that shaped the nineteenth-century literary landscape, showcasing Tennyson's mastery of rhythm, imagery, and emotional depth. Included within are monumental works such as "The Princess," a medley exploring themes of female education and gender roles, and "In Memoriam A.H.H.," a profound elegiac reflection on grief and faith.

Readers will also find "Maud," a monodrama of passion and psychological complexity, alongside the legendary "Idylls of the King," which reimagines Arthurian myths with epic grandeur. From the poignant narrative of "Enoch Arden" to the evocative shorter lyrics that earned him the title of Poet Laureate, this collection captures the evolution of Tennyson's voice. His ability to blend classical tradition with contemporary Victorian concerns-ranging from scientific progress to romantic longing-makes these verses essential reading. This anthology serves as a testament to the enduring influence of a poet whose work remains a cornerstone of the English literary canon.
