"Victorian Poetry" by John Drinkwater is an analytical exploration of the poetry from the Victorian era, likely written in the early 20th century. The work aims to provide readers with an insightful overview of the significant poets of the time, including Alfred Tennyson, Robert Browning, and Matthew Arnold, while discussing the stylistic and thematic characteristics that define Victorian poetry. The opening of the book provides context for its scope and methodology. The author acknowledges that while the book does not aspire to be exhaustive, it seeks to highlight key poets and their contributions. Drinkwater distinguishes between poets who belong specifically to the Victorian period and those, like Thomas Hardy, who, while active during that time, are more representative of later poetic movements. The introduction sets the stage for a discussion of the influences on Victorian poetry and hints at the exploration of different stylistic elements, laying a foundation for the upcoming chapters on diction, themes, and the evolving nature of poetry during the age.
