Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories From Robert Browning To lovers of Robert Browning - and all who read him are such - it may seem impertinent to offer these little stories. The unfortunate fact is, and herein lies their excuse, that very few, even thoughtful, persons, do read Browning. One rarely finds, among the many who condemn him as obscure, a single man or woman who is familiar with his simple poems, like 'Evelyn Hope, ' 'Instans Tyrannus, ' and 'Saul, ' so full of lyrical inspiration; his pure poetic conceptions, like 'Prospice' and 'Natural Magic;' or his deeply religious ones, like Rabbi Ben Ezra and Death in the Desert. To those who have found each successive volume, as it issued from the press, to contain so many elements of spiritual growth, or to mark the milestones of their best experience, this would seem incredible were it not so common. No attempt has been made in these stories criticise him, but, simply dropping all extraneous matter, to reproduce, as much in his own words as possible, the motive of some of his poems.

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.

This book was released on 2017-01-29 with total page 1056 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Complete Poetic and Dramatic Works of Robert Browning Ir one sought to build any genealogical structure to account for Robert Browning's genius, he would find but slight foundation in fact, though what he found would be substantial so far as it went. Browning's father was a bank clerk in London; his father again was a bank clerk. Both of these Brownings were christened Robert. The father of the poet's grandfather was Thomas Browning, an innkeeper and small proprietor in Dorsetshire, and his stock apparently was west country English. Browning himself liked to believe that an earlier ancestor was a certain Captain Micaiah Browning who raised the siege of Derry in 1689 by an act of personal bravery which cost him his life. It is most to the point that Browning was London born with two generations of city Londonenbehind him. His mother was Sarah Anne a name which became Sarianna in the poet's aister Wiedemann, the Scottish daughter Of a Hamburg German, a shipowner in Dundee.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Select Poems of Robert Browning The publishers have desired that this book should be included in the series Of English Classics edited by me, and that my name should be put first on the title-page; but I may say here in the preface that the better part - in every sense - Of the work has been done by Miss Hersey, who knows tenfold more about Browning than I do. She originated the plan, selected the poems, prepared the Introduction, and wrote more than half Of the notes. I have carefully collated the earlier and later texts Of the poems (see especially the various readings of T lze Lost Lead er, Coila'e Roland, and Ftp/5a Passes, none of which appear in their later form in the American editions), and have revised and filled out the Notes.

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.
