The Works of Alfred Lord Tennyson, Vol. 5, Dramas - Paperback

by Alfred Lord Tennyson (Author)

Tennyson's dramatic works bring poetic intensity to historical and legendary subjects, portraying figures such as Queen Mary and Harold of England in moments of profound personal and political crisis. Blending verse with stagecraft, the plays explore ambition, conscience, and the tragic consequences of human choice. These dramas reflect the poet's deep concern with legacy, leadership, and the limits of fate in shaping individual destiny.

Alfred Lord Tennyson (1809-1892) was Poet Laureate of the United Kingdom during much of Queen Victoria's reign and remains one of the most popular poets in the English language. This volume contains Tennyson's dramas Queen Mary, Harold, The Cup, and The Falcon.
