    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.

    - This volume is brilliantly illustrated with 70 pictures to amplify the poems of Alfred Lord Tennyson. Truly unique! Alfred Tennyson, 1st Baron Tennyson, FRS, was considered the most popular British poet. According to The Oxford Dictionary of Quotations, Tennyson is the 9th most quoted writer in the English Language. Yet, some of his poems were dropped from collections of his works, never reprinted - that is, until a scholar named J.C. Thomson dug them up. Here are Tennyson's suppressed works from 1830 to 1868 neatly collected in one volume. What makes this book different from other versions available is that it's a pictorial edition, each poem illustrated by a photographic still life that reflects the sentiments of the verse. A unique presentation.

    " A storm was coming, but the winds were still,And in the wild woods of Broceliande,Before an oak, so hollow, huge and oldIt looked a tower of ivied masonwork,At Merlin's feet the wily Vivien lay.For he that always bare in bitter grudgeThe slights of Arthur and his Table, MarkThe Cornish King, had heard a wandering voice,A minstrel of Caerlon by strong stormBlown into shelter at Tintagil, sayThat out of naked knightlike puritySir Lancelot worshipt no unmarried girlBut the great Queen herself, fought in her name,Sware by her--vows like theirs, that high in heavenLove most, but neither marry, nor are givenIn marriage, angels of our Lord's report.He ceased, and then--for Vivien sweetly said(She sat beside the banquet nearest Mark),'And is the fair example followed, Sir,In Arthur's household?'--answered innocently:'Ay, by some few--ay, truly--youths that holdIt more beseems the perfect virgin knightTo worship woman as true wife beyondAll hopes of gaining, than as maiden girl.They place their pride in Lancelot and the Queen.So passionate for an utter purityBeyond the limit of their bond, are these,For Arthur bound them not to singleness.Brave hearts and clean! and yet God guide them young."

    " Tears, idle tears, I know not what they mean,Tears from the depth of some divine despairRise in the heart, and gather to the eyes,In looking on the happy Autumn-fields,And thinking of the days that are no more.Fresh as the first beam glittering on a sail,That brings our friends up from the underworld,Sad as the last which reddens over oneThat sinks with all we love below the verge;So sad, so fresh, the days that are no more.Ah, sad and strange as in dark summer dawnsThe earliest pipe of half-awakened birdsTo dying ears, when unto dying eyesThe casement slowly grows a glimmering square;So sad, so strange, the days that are no more.Dear as remembered kisses after death,And sweet as those by hopeless fancy feignedOn lips that are for others; deep as love,Deep as first love, and wild with all regret;O Death in Life, the days that are no more!"

    " Elaine the fair, Elaine the loveable,Elaine, the lily maid of Astolat,High in her chamber up a tower to the eastGuarded the sacred shield of Lancelot;Which first she placed where the morning's earliest rayMight strike it, and awake her with the gleam;Then fearing rust or soilure fashioned for itA case of silk, and braided thereuponAll the devices blazoned on the shieldIn their own tinct, and added, of her wit,A border fantasy of branch and flower,And yellow-throated nestling in the nest.Nor rested thus content, but day by day,Leaving her household and good father, climbedThat eastern tower, and entering barred her door,Stript off the case, and read the naked shield,Now guessed a hidden meaning in his arms,Now made a pretty history to herselfOf every dint a sword had beaten in it,And every scratch a lance had made upon it,Conjecturing when and where: this cut is fresh;That ten years back; this dealt him at Caerlyle;That at Caerleon; this at Camelot:And ah God's mercy, what a stroke was there!And here a thrust that might have killed, but GodBroke the strong lance, and rolled his enemy down,And saved him: so she lived in fantasy."

    Maud, and Other Poems (1850) is a collection of poems by British poet Alfred, Lord Tennyson. The first work Tennyson published after becoming Poet Laureate in 1850, Maud, and Other Poems contains several of the poet¿s most celebrated works. ¿Maud,¿ the title poem, is a narrative that explores themes of forbidden romance, marriage, death, and mourning. ¿The Charge of the Light Brigade,¿ originally published in The Examiner in 1854, was written as a tribute to the British Light Cavalry Brigade, which led an ill-fated charge at the Battle of Balaclava during the Crimean War.¿Maud¿ follows a young poet who, after the tragic loss of his father, falls in love with the beautiful Maud. Despite his honorable intentions, the narrator is thwarted by Maud¿s brother, who wants his sister to marry a wealthy businessman. When the brother takes a brief trip to London, the young poet uses the opportunity to court Maud in earnest. But time is not on his side, and the brother returns to throw a ball in order to introduce the businessman to his sister. As his chance at love erodes, the poet makes a desperate choice and risks losing everything¿love, home, and life itself. ¿The Charge of the Light Brigade¿ is a tribute to the British casualties at the Battle of Balaclava during the Crimean War. Tennyson¿s patriotic narrative poem addresses the controversy surrounding the charge, which took place because of a mistaken order and sent hundreds of British cavalrymen in a doomed head-on assault on a well-fortified Russian line of defense.With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Alfred, Lord Tennyson¿s Maud, and Other Poems is a classic of English literature reimagined for modern readers.

    Idylls of the King (1859-1885) is a cycle of narrative poems by British poet Alfred, Lord Tennyson. Written while Tennyson was serving as Poet Laureate, Idylls of the King reworks the medieval Arthurian legend in blank verse and with an elegiac tone. Based on Sir Thomas Malory¿s Le Morte d¿Arthur and the early British Mabinogion manuscripts, Tennyson¿s work connects an ancient tradition to the reign and ideals of Queen Victoria.¿The Coming of Arthur¿ traces Arthur¿s rise to power, narrating his role in the siege of Cameliard and the liberation of Leodogran¿s kingdom. Following their victory, Arthur marries Guinevere, Leodogran¿s daughter, who is brought to Camelot by the loyal Sir Lancelot, one of Arthur¿s finest knights. In ¿Gareth and Lynette,¿ the young Gareth begins as a worker in Camelot¿s kitchens before ascending to the role of knight and being sent on a quest to Castle Perilous. In ¿Enid,¿ Sir Geraint, disturbed by a rumored liaison between Lancelot and Guinevere, grows suspicious of his wife Enid and decides to leave Camelot. Unable to quell his distrust and jealousy, Geraint brings Enid on a dangerous quest in order to test her faith. Other sections of the sequence follow the quest for the Holy Grail, Guinevere¿s escape from Camelot, and Mordred¿s betrayal of Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. Idylls of the King illuminates an ancient legend for modern audiences, presenting stories of honor, romance, and adventure in engaging, accessible verse.With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Alfred, Lord Tennyson¿s Idylls of the King is a classic of English literature reimagined for modern readers.
