Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Spiritual Lessons From the Brownings They have been voices for the Spirit. The message of no prophet ever rang more truly to the music of love to God and man than do the songs of Whittier; 110 teacher has spoken more clearly of the immortal life and "the eternal hope" than Tennyson; the apostle John was not more intensely and nobly mystical than was Robert Browning; and no prophetess or Sibyl was ever more evidently filled with a divine passion than was Mrs. Browning. In this little book I shall endeavor to emphasize two or three of the many spiritual lessons which the Brownings have taught the world. My object is not a study of these poets as religious teachers. That would require a volume of more imposing proportions, for one of them was a profoundly mystical theologian, and the other was an intensely practical preacher. My purpose is exposition rather than investigation. Among the poems of Robert Browning is one which may be called an echo of the sermon on Mars Hill. "Cleon" is a supposed letter from a Greek poet, artist, and philosopher to his patron king. It begins with a recognition of the munificence and nobility of Protus, who had sent rich gifts to Cleon. Evidently in response to some inquiry of his king, Cleon recites his own achievements as a poet, painter, and architect; and this leads to the thought that he could not claim all the credit for his skill as an artist, but that it was the fruit of long ages of discipline and growth in others. Very quickly he comes to what the blind poet-preacher of Scotland, Dr. George Mathewson, has called the distinctive characteristic of all religions, viz., their teaching concerning incarnation.

Download or read book The Confessions of a Browning Lover Classic Reprint written by John Walker Powell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-17 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Confessions of a Browning Lover That this is a weakness in their art, and that the world must in the end come back to the essen tial truths which the church has been trying to teach, however profoundly our interpretation of these truths may be modified by the enlargement of thought which the new science has afforded, is the fundamental thesis of this book. I am a Browning lover because Browning did teach these essential truths, and taught them in a form which divorced them from the specific dogmas of the schools and made them acceptable to one who has sat at the feet of present-day science and philosophy. I would be the last to belittle the contribution of science to modern life. What I have to say re garding the shallowness of much scientific teach ing, and its tendency to deny the ideal ends of the spiritual life, has nothing whatever to do with the rights of science in its own field of empirical te search, nor with the value of its results as material for further interpretation. Nor would I deny that there are many great scientists whose spirit ual Vision has been sound, and who have made im portant contributions to our knowledge of life and its meaning.

Download or read book Elizabeth Barrett Browning s Spiritual Progress Face to Face with God written by Linda M. Lewis and published by University of Missouri Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elizabeth Barrett Browning believed that "Christ's religion is essentially poetry - poetry glorified." In Elizabeth Barrett Browning's Spiritual Progress, Linda M. Lewis studies Browning's religion as poetry, her poetry as religion. The book interprets Browning's literary life as an arduous spiritual quest - the successive stages being a rejection of Promethean pride for Christ-like humility, affirmation of the Gospels of Suffering and of Work, internalization of the doctrine of Apocalypse, and ascent to Divine Love and Truth. Concluding with an examination of religion as a central focus of Victorian women poets, Lewis clarifies the ways in which Browning differs from Christina Rossetti, Felicia Hemans, Dora Greenwell, Jean Ingelow, and Mary Howitt. Elizabeth Barrett Browning's Spiritual Progress maintains that Browning's peculiar face-to-face struggle with the patristic and poetic tradition - as well as with God - sets her work apart
Download or read book An Introduction to the Study of Robert Browning s Poetry Classic Reprint written by Hiram Corson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of Robert Browning's Poetry The study of poetry, in our institutions of learning, so far as I have taken note of it, and the education induced thereby, are almost purely intellectual. The student's spiritual nature is left to take care of itself and the consequence is that he becomes, at best, only a thinking and analyzing machine. The spiritual claims of the study of poetry are especially demanded in the case of Browning's poetry. Browning is gen erally and truly regarded as the most intellectual of poets. No poetry in English literature, or in any literature, is more charged with discursive thought than his. But he is, at the same time, the most spiritual and transcendental of poets, the subtlest assertor of the Soul in Song. His thought is never an end to itself, but is always subservient to an ulterior spiritual end always directed towards a presentment of the correspond ency of the universe to Deity, of the natural to the spirit ual, and of the actual to the ideal and it is all-important that students should be awakened, and made, as far as possi ble, responsive to this spiritual end. The sections of the Introduction on Personality and Art were read before the Browning Society of London, in June, 1882. I have seen no reason for changing or modifying, in any respect, the views therein expressed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
