A treasury of Victorian verse, where myth and intimacy meet. Timeless lines that still stir. Selected and arranged by Myra Reynolds, Selections From The Poems Of Tennyson; With Parts Of The Idylls Of The King gathers Alfred Tennyson poems across lyric and long narrative, offering a polished victorian poetry collection and narrative verse anthology that balances romantic poetry themes with the epic sweep of arthurian legend poems. Short dramatic lyrics sit beside extracts from the Idylls, so the reader experiences Tennyson’s metrical mastery, his rhetorical restraint and sudden emotional surges. The arrangement privileges variety: elegy, lyric meditation, occasional verse and sustained storytelling are all present, making the volume equally suited to quiet reading, recital and classroom discussion.As Poet Laureate and a defining voice of nineteenth century literature, Tennyson shaped the sensibility of the victorian england setting and helped codify many forms now taught as english literary classics. These selections illuminate how he moved between interior observation and mythic narrative, rendering questions of heroism and chivalry, memory and moral responsibility in language that remains vivid. Casual readers will respond to the immediacy of the lyric and the sweep of storytelling; teachers and students will recognise it as poetry for students and a reliable literature curriculum resource; collectors and devotees of the canon will value the volume as an important british poets anthology addition. Compact yet generous, the selection serves general readers, classroom needs and the tastes of classic-literature collectors with equal care. Suitable for close reading and performance, the selections make fine set texts for examination and essays; their tonal range rewards repeated attention and thoughtful reflection.Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike.
