For much of the 19th century, 'The Angel in the House' was one of the most popular poems in the English language, praised for its tender lyricism and moral purity. Today, its portrayal of idealized femininity and patriarchal norms can be read as a window onto the gender politics of the Victorian era. This edition features the original text of the poem, along with critical essays that explore its literary, social, and historical significance.
