Answer:
The Victorian Era was the period of Queen Victoria's reign, from 1837 to 1901. The Victorian women was seen as belonging to the domestic sphere, and had very limited privileges. The Lady of Shalott is a beautiful poem by Alfred Lord Tennyson, written around 1833.
This particular text describes an abstract idea of the thoughts that a Victorian woman could conceive, in the same way that the Lady of Shalott could.
She enjoys her solitary world, even though she expresses a deep frustration about this 'world of shadows' around her. Let's remeber that during the Victorian era, women had very limited privileges and a small participation in society. This could have been her 'world of shadows'.
Ideally, this text would describe how Lord Tennyson perceived society in his era and he used the Lady of Shalott to reflect these thoughts and perceptions.

Instead of just having the characters of Pyramus and Thisbe, Shakespeare gives the inanimate objects like the wall and the moon, and animals like the lion actual lines. This creates humor, especially because the actors are so bad, and sets it apart from the original myth.</span>
