A monumental achievement in Victorian poetry, The Poetical Works of Alfred Lord Tennyson spans ten volumes and presents the full breadth of Tennyson’s literary mastery. Published in 1886 by Macmillan, this set compiles his major and lesser-known works, including In Memoriam, Idylls of the King, and The Princess, alongside lyrical meditations and dramatic monologues. Tennyson instructs readers in the emotional and philosophical currents of his age, chronicling themes of mortality, heroism, and spiritual longing with precision and grace. The collection illustrates his evolution from romantic idealism to a more introspective and nationalistic voice, solidifying his legacy as England’s Poet Laureate. Rich in historical resonance and poetic innovation, it remains a cornerstone of 19th-century English literature.
