Robert Browning's Poetry

The Second Edition of this substantial collection of Browning's poetry again reprints the texts of the seventeen-volume "Fourth and complete edition" (Smith, Elder), of which all but the final volume were approved by Browning before his death. The poems are ordered chronologically according to their first appearance in book form. Thirteen new poems are included in this edition, with Pauline now printed in its entirety. Annotations have been revised throughout to clarify Browning's references and vocabulary. "Criticism" retains the important contextual perspective of the First Edition. The twenty-three essays, nine of which are new, are divided into three sections: "Victorian Views," "Modern Essays in Criticism," and "Interpretations of Poems." A Chronology, Selected Bibliography, and Index of Titles and First Lines are also included.Browning, Robert is the author of 'Robert Browning's Poetry', published 1980 under ISBN 9780393044751 and ISBN 0393044750.
