About this book

About two dozen of Robert Browning's dramatic poems are collected here, among them My Last Duchess, The Pied Piper of Hamelin, The Last Ride Together, The Statue and the Bust and "Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came." The text follows a Crowell edition of 1898 and adds an introduction and notes by Charlotte Porter and Helen A. Clarke. Their introduction points to several poems as pictures of the Renaissance, from the jealous husband of Ferrara to the scholar's funeral procession.

About the author

Robert Browning - BDeBooks
Robert Browning

Robert Browning (1812-1889) was an English poet who turned the dramatic monologue into his signature form, letting flawed speakers convict themselves in their own words. Long overshadowed by his wife, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, he was recognized late in life as one of the major Victorians.
