Royal Idylls: Poems

Alfred Tennyson — one of the brightest poets of the Victorian era. While the Brontë sisters, Elizabeth Gaskell, and Charles Dickens represent the Victorian era in prose, Tennyson, like no one else, expressed it in poetry. It has long been... noted that had that era not been called Victorian, it could very well have borne the name of Alfred Tennyson. In surprisingly picturesque and musical verses, he embodied the ideas, dreams, aspirations, and values of his contemporaries, although he addressed distant centuries in his plots: to antiquity and to legends about King Arthur. This edition includes the most famous works of Tennyson — “Royal Idylls,” “Ulysses,” “Lotophagi,” “The Death of Arthur,” and others. The cycle “Royal Idylls” is published in the translation of Olga Chyumina, which was released in 1903–1904 and received high praise from critics. O. N. Chyumina was not only the first but, until recently, the only translator to acquaint Russian readers with Tennyson's main work.
