Drawing from his personal letters and from the diaries and memoirs of his contemporaries, this literary biography provides a wealth of information about the main events of his life, including the social, political, religious, and aesthetic issues that concerned him; it offers critical commentary defining the central characteristics of his poetry; and it tracks the changes in his reputation through contemporary reviews and the growth of the Browning societies. An English poet who was deeply responsive to European culture and affairs, Robert Browning has sometimes been dismissed by modern readers for his obscurity or roughness of language. Now two distinguished scholars of Browning's work trace the arc of his development as an artist and thinker from his earliest poems to the last in his long and remarkably productive career. The authors illustrate how Browning moved from describing "incidents in the development of a soul," to developing his reader's soul as collaborator in the artistic process, to the development of his own soul in the making of poetry. Through a fresh reading of not only his poetry but also the letters of both Robert and Elizabeth Barrett Browning, they have garnered details that situate the two in historical context, provide a vivid sense of Robert's personality, and also correct biases against Elizabeth's influence. Their critical commentary focuses on the poet's dramatic imagination and argues that his extensive body of work after The Ring and the Book¿often dismissed as evidencing a decline in his poetic powers represented new directions in his poetry marked by inventive dialogue, verbal puzzles, and virtuoso rhyming. Written to appeal to both general readers and scholars, the book will enable anyone to read Browning's poems with a firm sense of the subjects and practices that are central to his texts, along with a knowledge of their context in the poet's life and thought. The Dramatic Imagination of Robert Browning invites readers of a singular body of poetry to achieve a new understanding of Browning's work and a greater appreciation of his life. 606 $aPoets, English$y19th century$vBiography 606 $aMarried people$zGreat Britain$vBiography 615 0$aPoets, English 615 0$aMarried people 676 $a821/.809 676 $aB 700 $aKennedy$b Richard S$01924856 701 $aHair$b Donald S$0881101 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911091469803321 996 $aThe dramatic imagination of Robert Browning$94672195 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02871nam 2200661Ia 450 001 9911154958703321 005 20241226110738.0 010 $a9781452289984 010 $a1452289980 010 $a9781452244099 010 $a145224409X 010 $a9781452263946 010 $a1452263949 035 $a(CKB)2550000000107937 035 $a(EBL)996757 035 $a(OCoLC)804049268 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000704961 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12287437 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000704961 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10636191 035 $a(PQKB)10016092 035 $a(OCoLC)1007858019 035 $a(StDuBDS)EDZ0000085672 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC996757 035 $a235891 035 $a(EXLCZ)992550000000107937 100 $a20120126d2012 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aFlash programming for the social & behavioral sciences $ea simple guide to sophisticated online surveys and experiments /$fYana Weinstein ; with contributions from K.
