Victorian poetry was read and enjoyed by a much larger audience
than is sometimes thought. Publication in widely-circulating
periodicals, reprinting in book reviews, and excerpting in novels
and essays ensured that major poets such as Tennyson, Browning,
Hardy and Rossetti were household names, and they remain popular
today. The Cambridge Introduction to Victorian Poetry provides an
accessible overview of British poetry from 1830 to 1901, paying
particular attention to its role in mass media print culture.
Designed to interest both students and scholars, the book traces
lively dialogues between poets and explains poets' choices of form,
style and language. It also demonstrates poetry's relevance to
Victorian debates on science, social justice, religion,
imperialism, and art. Featuring a glossary of literary terms, a
guide to further reading, and two examples of close readings of
Victorian poems, this introduction is the ideal starting-point for
the study of verse in the nineteenth century.
