A great age of poetry speaks for itself in Christopher Ricks's
celebrated anthology: the variety and power of Victorian verse, the
innovation and creativity with which poets resisted the bad
propensities of the era through which they lived.
The great figures are of course strongly represented --Tennyson and
Browning, Swinburne and Hopkins--but not so as to crowd out the
less expected but equally rewarding facets of light verse and
nonsense, of grotesque and protest. At long last justice is done to
the poignant directness of "the true voice of feeling," from
William Barnes and John Clare, through Emily Jane Bronte and
Christina G. Rossetti, to Thomas Hardy.
