Author: Robert Browning ISBN: 280 Genre: Poetry File Size: 54.64 MB Format: PDF, Kindle Download: 131 Read: 329 Robert Browning was one of the greatest of English poets, whose intense and original imagination enabled him to transform any subject he chose - whether everyday or sublime - into startling memorable verse. In his work he brought to life the personalities of a diverse range of characters, and introduced a new immediacy, colloquial energy and psychological complexity to the poetry of his day. This selection brings together verse ranging from early dramatic monologues such as the chilling 'My Last Duchess' and the ribald 'Fra Lippo Lippi', which show his gift for inhabiting the mind of another, to the popular children's poem 'The Pied Piper of Hamelin' and many lesser known works. All display his innovative techniques of diction, rhythm and symbol, which transformed Victorian poetry and influenced major poets of the twentieth century such as Ezra Pound, T. Eliot and Robert Frost.

Consider Browning's 'Parting at Morning' Round the cape of a sudden came the sea, And the sea looked over the mountain's rim: And straight was a path of gold for him, And the need of a world of men for me. Consider the famous opening from Rabbi Ben Ezra Grow old along with me! The best is yet tobe, The last of life, for which the first was made: Our times are in his hand Who saith, 'A whole I planned, Youth shows but half; trust God, see all, nor be afraid' This selection contains many of Browning's most well- known poems, ' Pippa Passes ' 'My Last Duchess' ' Love Amoung the Ruins' 'Home Thoughts from Abroad ' 'Fra Lippo Lippi' The greatness of Browning is a strength of character in the poetry. The technique of 'dramatic monologue' that he develops enables him to provide story and portrait at once, combine colloquial language and rich specialized language suited to the character and world of the speaker. He has been criticized for a facile optimism( God's in his Heaven, All's right with the world) when he had in fact a deep sense of the tragic disappointments most of human flesh is in one way or another heir to. He time and again makes his 'historical characters and their situations' come to life. And he has a richness and broadness in capturing life's varied moods.

The best is yet to be, The last of life, for which the first was made: Our times are in His hand Who saith ' A whole I planned, Youth shows but half; trust God: see all, nor be afraid!' Browning is a poet of the inner life.His dramatic monologues are in the words of F.B.
