Book excerpt: Excerpt from Robert Browning: Essays and Thoughts In an age when knowledge, for its own sake, is by a large class of men as eagerly sought as gold, some apology seems necessary for a composition which professedly avoids facts, and deals in speculation. More especially would this apology seem to be due from anyone attempting to handle the works of a master, the beneficence of whose genius has led him to range in fields of knowledge so wide, and for their own sake to store harvests of learning so plenteous. Any such apology as may be due on this ground I am willing to make; but I should fail in my duty of respect were I to stop there, and refrain from expressing, though in feeble words, the extent of my debt in another way.

This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Guide-Book to the Poetic and Dramatic Works of Robert Browning Browning needs no helps in making his meanings clearto his readers, but for those who have found it diflicult to read him, and for those who have not a library at hand for the explanation of his allusions. In its preparation the work of others has been drawn upon freely. The Papers of the London Browning Society have been the chief source of in formation. The great amount oi interesting matter con tained in the twelve numbers now issued of those Papers has been carefully studied but it is in a form very incoa venient for reference. In this volume much of it will be found under the titles of the poems to which it refers. Mrs. Orr's valuable Handbook to Robert Browning's Works has been used to a considerable extent, because it contains much information supplied directly by Browning for the elucidar tion of his poems. In every instance where such informa tion was necessary to the purpose of the present volume it has been used, credit being given wherever possible. An other valuable source of information has been the magazine called poet-lore, which has given special attention to the interpretation of Browning's poems, and to awaking an in terest in his poetry. For the aid of the student of Brown ing who may wish to consult the books and essays referred to throughout this volume, and also the best things written of the poet, there have been added to this preface a number of brief reference lists. Very much not contained in any of the books devoted to Browning and his poetry will be found in these pages, arranged systematically and in a form con venient for reference. The book will be found to contain the following kinds of information about Browning and his works. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Robert Browning as a Religious Teacher: Being the Burney Essay for 1900 No one would be foolish enough to deny that there is a considerable element of truth in this View. It is, of course, impossible to give an adequate prose version of any true poetry, for the music and the words are indissolubly blended in the unity of the song. But to deny the possibility of translating poetry into prose is a very different thing from declaring that a poet's thought is necessarily un analysable. The secret of life is indeed concealed from the microscope of the scientist, but the structure of the organism can easily be exhibited. In precisely.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Robert Browning: Chief Poet of the Age I AM gratified to find that this book has been so favourably received as to call for a second edition; a circumstance which has afforded me the opportunity of correcting some errors, and of somewhat enlarging the scope of the work, and thereby adding, I would fain hope, to its usefulness. My main purpose has been to offer a sort of manual for beginners in the study of Browning. There are various treatises in existence dealing cri tically with the poems; but none, it seemed to me, specially intended as a guide to beginners. My object is, primarily, to call attention to the simplest of the poems, while remarking on the leading characteristics of the poet's genius, in the hope that the reader may be induced thereby to study the complete works of Robert Browning. Of course, for more advanced students, the Handbook of Mrs. Orr is fire: guide to the full understanding of Browning.

Download or read book Two Essays on Robert Browning written by Felix Emmanuel Schelling and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-08-07 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Two Essays on Robert Browning: I. Robert Browning and the Poetry of the Future, an Address Before the Browning Society of Philadelphia; II. Robert Browning and the Arabesque in Art, a Lecture Delivered to the Senior Class in Arts of the University of Pennsylvania The following words were completed some days before the recent news of Mr. Browning's death. Of Mr. Browning, the man, it becomes us not yet to speak; the memory of him belongs to those into whose personal grief it would be only an impertinence for a stranger to in quire. Time has not yet made the author's life the inheritance of the public. Mr. Browning's life has been all that could be wished, and here is neither time nor place for an obtrusive eulogy of that life. But Robert Browning, the author, has been long the common property of us all. His works have been so long before us, and his name has been so landed and linked with the immortals that have gone before, that death can add little to an apotheosis already so complete. To speak of him in praise or in dispraise has been long a fashion among us, and the ac eident of his recent demise can assuredly make no further utterance nu fitting. It is yet too soon to attempt an estimate of this life of pro longed literary activity, or to seek for the explanation of a contemporary reputation almost unexampled in the annals of literature; but it can never be impertinent to add - if not to the adulation that streams from a thousand altars - at least a word to the better understanding of a figure, which, however taste may change, must always be regarded as one of the most prominent and interesting of our century. Moreover, the ex traordinary prominence which Mr. Browning's followers have long claimed for him, a claim which has sought to dethrone all the poets of our tongue, save the prince of poets himself, is in itself a challenge to all men to speak; and if, as has been said, Mr. Browning has divided the critics into two hostile camps, so portentous a power may well stand for a subject of attention at any time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Robert Browning Perhaps the most striking characteristic alike of Browning's personal character and of his poetry is his intense, individuality, his independence of external influences. Sociable and affectionate, and including among his friends men and women of strong personality, his nature nevertheless remained little affected by contact with others. Only his wife touched the essentials in his character; and her influence did not so much modify his personality as awaken in it emotions and powers previously undeveloped, give it the atmosphere of finest sympathy and the stimulus of deepest feeling which made it more magnificently itself. And this same independence marks Browning's work. His intellectual sympathies were singularly wide; his culture was cosmopolitan, though most friendly to the influences of his beloved Italy; painting, music, history, politics, all fascinated him, and his literary sympathies, despite certain marked insensibilities, were rich and varied. But all these influences merely gave new force to his genius without definitely informing its temper. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
