About this book
Chronological arrangement lets readers follow Robert Browning's poems and plays across a single collected volume. Edited by Horace E. Scudder, this Cambridge edition includes Pauline, Paracelsus, Pippa Passes, the Dramatic Lyrics and The Ring and the Book, alongside many shorter pieces. The range of forms makes it useful for readers who want to move between a brief lyric and an extended dramatic work.
In the passage from The Ring and the Book, a speaker appeals to the lords for his life, liberty and son, turning grievances into an urgent argument about justice. That sustained voice gives a sense of Browning's interest in people explaining and defending themselves. A biographical sketch introduces the collection, while brief headnotes and explanatory notes offer help with individual works. An essay on Shelley, a publication chronology, and indexes of titles and first lines provide further ways to explore the volume.
