Abstract
This volume highlights Swinburne’s technical experimentation with the roundel form, a fixed verse structure he popularized in English poetry. A Century of Roundels showcases concise, lyrical compositions emphasizing musical repetition and structural symmetry. The collection underscores the poet’s fascination with formal innovation and metrical discipline while addressing themes of love, art, and philosophical reflection.
