APRIL’S REIGN: A brilliantly illuminated edition of “The May Queen” by Alfred Lord Tennyson was one of the treasures from Rush Rhees Library that took center stage as part of a celebration of National Poetry Month in April. First published in 1832, the poem was illustrated by L. Summerbell in the 1870s. The online project highlighted other examples of poetic and literary work, including videos of faculty members reading some of their favorite poems.
