Arnold, Poetical Works, ePub Edition

Matthew Arnold’s poems are intimate and delicate, while still maintaining the dignity and clarity of thought we know from his critical work. With a masterful use of diction and clear rhythmical structures, some of his poems are among the best Victorian poetry has to offer. ‘Dover Beach,’ arguably his most famous piece, is widely anthologised and speaks to a modern desolation almost anticipating the early twentieth century. This new edition contains the entirety of Matthew Arnold’s œuvre, from his 1849 collection ‘The Strayed Reveller and Other Poems’, to ‘New Poems’ from 1867, and other poems not gathered in collections.
