You will have to do your own research on this, but you don't give us much information with which to help you. Do you need to write on the Victorian poets as a group? Can you choose one poet? A few poets? This is a pretty broad question.
The Victorian poets are some of the greatest poets in English literature. They include:
Matthew Arnold
Charlotte Bronte
Emily Bronte
Elizabeth Browning
Robert Browning
Gerard Manley Hopkins
Rudyard Kipling
Christina Rosetti
Dante Gabriella Rosetti
Alfred Lord Tennyson
Oscar Wilde
These poets primarily wrote during the reign of Queen Victoria (from 1837-1901).
Although Queen Victoria’s reign implies a period of sexual repression and social conformity, the Victorian poets did not always “comply” with the expectations of Victorian society. The sonnet became very popular during this time and many female poets received important recognition for their art. Alfred Lord Tennyson is said to have been Queen Victoria’s favorite poet.
