À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Tennyson: A Selected Edition is drawn from Christopher Ricks' own The Poems of Tennyson, which first appeared in 1969 and was published as a second, three-volume edition, in 1987. Acclaimed by both the literary and academic worlds, it is acknowledged as a major achievement of editiorial scholarship and has established itself as the authoritative edition of the great poet of the Victorian age.

Tennyson: A Selected Edition includes in full all four of Tennyson's long poems -The Princess, In Memoriam, Maud, and Idylls of the King - as well as all the great poems includingMariana, The Lady of Shalott, Morte d'Arthur, Ulysses and Tithonus. In addition - and of vital importance to the scholar and student - this edition retains all the headnotes and footnotes from the complete edition, which shed valuable light on context and composition and which illuminate the wealth of allusion, classical and other, that Tennyson brought to bear within his poetry.

Now in a corrected edition,Tennyson: A Selected Edition will remain the standard edition for many years to come.
