Andromeda, and Other Poems
1858
Andromeda, and Other Poems is a collection of poetry by Charles Kingsley, first published in 1858. The opening poem, 'Andromeda,' draws from classical mythology, recounting the tragic story of a princess whose beauty incites the wrath of the sea goddess, leading to dire consequences for her family and community. The collection features rich imagery and emotive storytelling, exploring themes of beauty, sacrifice, and divine judgment, while also reflecting personal and mythological narratives of the 19th century.
