Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Alfred Tennyson In accordance with the plan of this series, I have taken up all the important briefer poems of Tennyson, giving the text itself with interpretive comment, somewhat in the manner of one who should read aloud from the poet to a company gathered by the evening fire, supplying such preliminary information and criticism as might be helpful to the listeners. I have also tried to give some account of the general character and structure of the great works which are too extensive to be represented by giving their full text, - the Idylls, In Memoriam, Maud, and The Princess, - so that any readers who care to use this book in connection with a volume of Tennyson´s complete poems may find here a guide for those works. But this does not include the dramas, which form a group of independent interest hardly appropriate to the present purpose. It is a commonplace that Tennyson does not require a guide-book in the same sense as Browning or many another writer. Indeed it would have been somewhat easier to write this book if he had been essentially eccentric, irregular, or obscure: the critic would have had a more agreeable sense of being indispensable. But it does not follow that one may not serve the reader of Tennyson´s poetry in a really useful way. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
