ENGL 041. The Victorian Poets: Eminence and Decadence


From Tennyson’s mythic moralizing to Robert Browning’s vivid ventriloquism, from Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s sharp-eyed social commentary to Oscar Wilde’s tragic outrageousness, from the “fleshly school” of Dante Gabriel Rossetti to the provocative nonsense of Lewis Carroll, this course examines the responses of Victorian poets to the stresses peculiar to their era.
