The Princess: A Medley is a narrative poem written by Alfred Tennyson and published in 1899. The poem is divided into seven parts and tells the story of a princess named Ida who starts a women's university in order to prove that women are just as capable as men. The story also includes a love triangle between Ida, Prince Hilarion, and his friend Cyril. The poem explores themes of gender roles, education, love, and societal expectations. Tennyson incorporates elements of comedy and satire into the poem, and it is considered one of his most experimental works. The poem's structure is unique, with alternating sections of narrative, dialogue, and song. Overall, The Princess: A Medley is a complex and thought-provoking work that challenges traditional notions of gender and education.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
