One of the leading poets of the nineteenth century, Elizabeth Barrett Browning had a profound influence on her contemporaries and on writers that followed her. This edition provides a rich and varied selection of Barrett Browning’s poetry, including relatively neglected material from her early career and works never before included in editions of her poetry. The edition is comprehensively annotated and includes a critical introduction; detailed headnotes for each poem also provide the reader with a deep understanding of the historical, biographical, and literary contexts in which the poems were written. The extensive appendices include reviews and criticism and material on factory reform and slavery, as well as religion and the Italian Question.

A mesmerizing collection of Browning's most famous poems is offered here. The beautiful blend of imagery with flowery diction and lyrical beauty makes it a book that offers everlasting pleasure to its readers. This anthology has 22 poems which vividly convey the vivacity and vigor of Browning's poetry. Delightful!
