| book description |

This Companion brings together specially commissioned essays by distinguished international scholars that reflect both the diversity of Victorian poetry and the variety of critical approaches that illuminate it. * Approaches Victorian poetry by way of genre, production and cultural context, rather than through individual poets or poems * Demonstrates how a particular poet or poem emerges from a number of overlapping cultural contexts. * Explores the relationships between work by different poets * Recalls attention to a considerable body of poetry that has fallen into neglect * Essays are informed by recent developments in textual and cultural theory * Considers Victorian women poets in every chapter
