Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Suppressed Poems of Alfred Lord Tennyson" by Baron Alfred Tennyson Tennyson is a collection of lesser-known and previously unpublished poems from one of the most renowned poets of the Victorian era, written during the mid-19th century. This anthology features various lyrical pieces, reflections on love and loss, and themes of existential inquiry, showcasing Tennyson's prolific creativity beyond his well-known works. The opening of the collection introduces the reader to Tennyson's early poem "Timbuctoo," which reflects on the hope and allure of distant, mystical cities. The poem is set against a backdrop of longing and existential contemplation, characterized by the speaker's yearning for a place full of richness and beauty while grappling with the transient nature of life. Tennyson's rich imagery and rhetorical questions create a poignant atmosphere, hinting at the deeper emotional and philosophical themes that permeate his suppressed poetry. As the introduction unfolds, the collection positions itself as a significant contribution to the understanding of Tennyson's artistic journey and the spectrum of his poetic expression.
