What are the differences between love poetry in the Victorian Era and the poetry in other time periods?

Caryn P asked:

I am really quite unsure. I have seen in all periods how people have written about dead lovers, how much they love their spouse, etc. and have a hard time finding a difference.

Thanks.

Good question.

In Vicky’s day, you were not allowed to gaze upon the naked body, or almost any part of it.

In Pompey, all the art was pornographic.

I prefer my art somewhere in the middle…
