While in the preceding Romantic period poetry had been the dominant genre, it was the novel that was most important in the Victorian period. Charles Dickens (1812–1870) dominated the first part of Victoria's reign: his first novel, Pickwick Papers, was published in 1836, and his last Our Mutual Friend between 1864–5. William Thackeray's (1811–1863) most famous work Vanity Fair appeared in 1848, and the three Brontë sisters, Charlotte (1816–55), Emily (1818–48) and Anne (1820–49), also published significant works in the 1840s. A major later novel was George Eliot's (1819–80) Middlemarch (1872), while the major novelist of the later part of Queen Victoria's reign was Thomas Hardy (1840–1928), whose first novel, Under the Greenwood Tree, appeared in 1872 and his last, Jude the Obscure, in 1895.
Robert Browning (1812–89) and Alfred Tennyson (1809–92) were Victorian England's most famous poets, though more recent taste has tended to prefer the poetry of Thomas Hardy, who, though he wrote poetry throughout his life, did not publish a collection until 1898, as well as that of Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–89), whose poetry was published posthumously in 1918. Algernon Charles Swinburne (1837–1909) is also considered an important literary figure of the period, especially his poems and critical writings. Early poetry of W. B. Yeats was also published in Victoria's reign.

Sex in Victorian Literature - were the Victorians as prudish as we think? How did they approach the subject of sex in their literature? In this ten minute talk, we find out that there is perhaps more sex in Victorian literature than appears at first glance... Head of English at New College of the Humanities, Dr Catherine Brown, looks at this subject with examples from Daniel Deronda, by George Eliot and Tess of the D'Ubervilles by Thomas Hardy. https://www.nchlondon.ac.uk/

Literature that emerged in England during the reign of Queen Victoria (1837–1901) was diverse in many ways, and defined to a large extent by the historical era rather than any other characteristic. More than anything else, the reading audience changed during this time as literacy rates rose and the reading of novels for pleasure lost the stigma of former times. The popularity of novels created a large market that, in turn, offered more opportunities for writers of all kinds and levels of talent. Best known for the works of the Brontë sisters and Dickens, Victorian literature goes beyond the moralizing so often associated with it, in many cases combining both imagination and emotion, as well as an effort to reach the newly literate readership. ---------- Literature tutoring on Chegg Tutor...

You built an imaginary world
Made of dreams and promises
You can't see who is around you
And the ones that you can trust
You can't live your own life anymore
Now is too late to consider and
You lost your friends by your fault
You lost your friends by your fault
You lost your friends by your fault...by your fault
You should better take another look
And to see who's around you
And now you blame the same people
That you used to call as brothers
You can't live your own life anymore
Now is too late to consider and
You lost your friends by your fault
You lost your friends by your fault
You lost your friends by your fault...by your fault
Anymore
You can't live your own life anymore
Now is too late to consider and
You lost your friends by your fault
You lost your friends by your fault
You lost your friends by your fault...by your fault
