PENGUIN CLASSICS SELECTED POEMS TENNYSON
Tennyson's poetry epitomizes the Victorian age, for which he became a spokesman. His finest poems are often steeped in a sensuous melancholy, as in Maud, or are chivaric, heroic and allegorical, as in The Lady of Shalot and Morte d'Arthur. "[Tennyson] had the finest ear of any English poet since Milton."
-T. S. Eliot
