Queen Mary - The Works of Alfred Lord Tennyson - Vol. XI

Alfred Tennyson's “Queen Mary” is a tense, psychologically charged drama that turns a royal court into a battlefield of conscience, ambition, and fear. Set against the pressure of religious and political conflict, the play follows Mary's struggle to hold on to authority while doubt and resentment threaten to break her from within. Through sharp confrontations and morally fraught decisions, characters collide over loyalty and survival, revealing how power can demand both cruelty and restraint. As betrayals and inner turmoil mount, the drama grows increasingly claustrophobic, until justice and mercy blur and the cost of rule becomes unmistakably personal. Queen Mary - The Works of Alfred Lord Tennyson - Vol. XI is an unchanged, high-quality reprint of the original edition of 1897.
