Alfred Tennyson. The Poetry Collections. Illustrated: IDYLLS OF THE KING, POEMS, BY TWO BROTHERS, IN MEMORIAM A. H. H., TIMBUCTOO AND OTHERS

Alfred Tennyson was the Poet Laureate during much of Queen Victoria's reign and remains one of the most popular British poets. Number of phrases from Tennyson's work have become commonplace in the English language. As source material for his poetry, Tennyson used a wide range of subject matter ranging from medieval legends to classical myths and from domestic situations to observations of nature. Tennyson was a craftsman who polished and revised his manuscripts extensively, to the point where his efforts at self-editing were described by his contemporary Robert Browning as "insane", symptomatic of "mental infirmity".
