Buchbeschreibung

In 'Introduction to Robert Browning', Hiram Corson provides invaluable guidance for those seeking to understand the complex and subjective poetry of Robert Browning. Through a detailed exposition of Browning's favorite art form, the dramatic monologue, Corson provides insights into the poet's unique genius and the structural challenges it presents. Moreover, he illuminates Browning's spirituality, which he contends is the true measure of a poem's worth. While Browning is often seen as an intellectual poet, Corson argues that his work is also highly spiritual and transcendental, requiring readers to engage with his ulterior spiritual end. With its combination of critical analysis and close reading of specific poems, 'Introduction to Robert Browning' is a must-read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of this enigmatic and highly regarded poet.
