This book is the seventh volume in the series A Survey of English Poetry and is devoted to the Victorian period (1837–1901), a formative era marked by profound social, intellectual, and aesthetic transformation. As a continuation of earlier volumes, this book situates Victorian poetry within the long historical arc of English poetic development. The Victorian age emerges here as a period of tension between tradition and change, continuity and disruption. Poetry during this era responds actively to industrial modernity, scientific discovery, and shifting moral frameworks. Accordingly, this volume adopts a historically grounded and critically informed approach to Victorian poetic culture.
