Inhaltsangabe
Unlock the workings of a poet’s craft through a close study of early Tennyson verse. This scholarly look examines how J. F. A. Pyre traces the development of Tennyson’s distinctive metrical practice and rhythm in his early poems, revealing how form shapes meaning.
The book focuses on versification, rhythm, and the handling of stresses in works like Dora, Michael, and Locksley Hall. It compares Tennyson’s methods with those of Wordsworth, Browning, and others, showing how the poet blends regular patterns with deliberate deviations to create expressive effects. Readers will see how choices in pause, cadence, and line length contribute to the overall tone and movement of the verse.
- Clear explanations of stress patterns, pauses, and spondees in key poems.
- Comparative analysis that situates Tennyson within a broader English and American poetic conversation.
- Examples that illustrate how description, narrative, and lyric moments hinge on metrical decisions.
- Discussion of authorial intent and how revisions reflect shaping the central passages.
Ideal for students of Victorian poetry, scholars of form, and readers curious about how meter and rhythm deliver meaning in early Tennyson.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the development of Alfred, Lord Tennyson's poetic style. It examines early influences on his poetry, such as the works of Byron, Milton, and Keats, and traces the evolution of his style through three major collections of poems published in 1830, 1833, and 1842. The author argues that Tennyson's early work was characterized by a wide range of influences and experimentation, but that he gradually developed a more distinctive and refined style, marked by greater metrical control and a focus on themes of nature, love, and loss. The book offers a detailed analysis of Tennyson's poetic techniques, including his use of imagery, diction, and rhythm, and provides insights into the creative process of one of the most important poets of the Victorian era. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
