AN EVERYMAN'S LIBRARY POCKET POET.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRobert Browning and Elizabeth Barrett Browning are without parallel in the nineteenth century: celebrated poets, they became equally famous for their marriage. Still popular more than a century after their deaths, their poetry vividly reflects the unique nature of their relationship.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis collection presents the Brownings’ work in the context of their lives: the early years and their initial friendship, their courtship and marriage, the fifteen happy years they spent living in Italy until Elizabeth’s death. Whether in short poems such as Elizabeth’s “Hector in the Garden” and Robert’s “Natural Magic,” or in extracts from longer works such as \u003ci\u003eAurora Leigh\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003ePauline\u003c\/i\u003e, the great themes they shared are all represented: love, marriage, illicit passion, England and Italy, childhood, religion, poetry, and nature. Elizabeth’s famous \u003ci\u003eSonnets from the Portuguese\u003c\/i\u003e, based on their love affair, is included in its entirety.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe poems are augmented with a generous selection of the marvelous letters the Brownings wrote to each other.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEveryman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, European-style half-round spines, and a full-color illustrated jacket.","brand":"Everyman's Library","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42961218404607,"sku":"9781400040223","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781400040223_s600x595.jpg?v=1775583990","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9781400040223","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
