About this title

Synopsis

A thoughtful, annotated collection of two great English poets

This edition gathers a generous selection of Coleridge and Tennyson, paired with an introduction and scholarly notes by Pelham Edgar. It provides biographical context, historical insight, and fresh perspective on familiar and less-visited poems alike. The result is a readable, well‑edited anthology that invites close reading and reflection.

The book offers both poets’ voices in one accessible volume, with helpful notes to illuminate references, themes, and the poetic craft. It balances biographical sketches with interpretive guidance, helping readers understand how life, art, and period shaped the works.

Inside you’ll find a range of verse—from narrative legends to lyric meditations—presented with clear presentation and scholarly welcome for study and enjoyment. The introduction frames their contributions to English literature and the notes deepen the reader’s grasp of imagery, form, and allusion.

Accessible poetry from Coleridge and Tennyson, anchored by a concise introduction
Helpful notes that explain references, allusions, and poetic technique
Contextual biographical sketches that illuminate the poets’ lives and work
A durable edition suitable for study, reference, and personal reading

Ideal for readers of classic British poetry, literature students, and anyone seeking a guided entry into two monumental voices in English verse.
