Robert Browning fut un poète victorien de premier plan, célèbre pour sa maîtrise du vers dramatique, en particulier du monologue dramatique. Son œuvre plonge profondément dans la psyché humaine, explorant les complexités du caractère à travers des discours poétiques introspectifs et souvent longs. Le style distinctif de Browning se caractérise par son riche vocabulaire et ses motifs métriques complexes, qui servent néanmoins à amplifier la résonance émotionnelle de ses récits. Il a innové la forme du monologue dramatique, l'utilisant pour révéler les pensées et motivations les plus intimes de ses locuteurs avec une acuité psychologique remarquable.

Wznowienie cenionej biografii Justyniana I, cesarza bizantyńskiego i jego żony Teodory uzasadnia wyjątkowość tej książki, bowiem - jak wspomina Robert Browning w przedmowie - jest ona próbą odmalowania takiego obrazu wydarzeń, jaki zapewne rysował się samemu cesarzowi i jego zadziwiającej, obdarzonej niezwykłą urodą, inteligencją i temperamentem małżonce. Mimo iż cesarze rzymscy nie byli samowładnymi dyktatorami i tak w zakresie informacji, jak i wprowadzania w życie swych decyzji byli uzależnieni od osobistych doradców oraz machiny biurokratycznej, niewątpliwie Justynian i Teodora odcisnęli na epoce piętno swoich osobowości mocniej niż którykolwiek z ich poprzedników, poczynając od Augusta przed pięciu i pół wiekami.

The author described the work as "the first of a series of dramatic pieces."King Victor and King Charles was the second play written by Robert Browning for the stage. The subject of the play is the strange incident in 1730–32 in the Kingdom of Sardinia in which the elderly king, Victor Amadeus II, first abdicated in favour of his son Charles Emmanuel III, and then after months of ever-increasing complaints unexpectedly demanded to be restored. He was imprisoned until his death a year later. Browning's treatment is based on 18th century sources which cast Victor as deliberately deceptive, but he goes further to create a secret history in which Charles is exonerated from all charges of cruelty. The play is in four acts and has only four main characters: Victor, Charles, Charles's wife Polyxena, and the minister D'Ormea.This carefully crafted ebook: “The Complete Plays” is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents.Robert Browning (1812 – 1889) was an English poet and playwright whose mastery of dramatic verse, and in particular the dramatic monologue, made him one of the foremost Victorian poets.Table of Contents:Introduction:Robert Browning by G.

'The rain set early in to-night,The sullen wind was soon awake,It tore the elm-tops down for spite,And did its worst to vex the I listened with heart fit to break,When glided in Porphyria...'Robert Browning was one of the greatest poets of the Victorian era. This collection includes his a selection of his most famous works. Dramatic monologues such as 'My Last Duchess' and 'Porphyria's Lover' show Browning's masterful ability to inhabit the minds of others and render them poetically, while his equally renowned narrative poetry, including such favourites as 'The Pied Piper of Hamlin', have become some the most frequently anthologized poems. There's no simple way of summing up Browning because his work is so varied, but there is no one better when it comes to describing the complexity of love.ABOUT THE Arcturus Great Poets Library brings together moving and inspiring verse from some of the greatest poets in history, presented with beautiful new cover designs with graphic motifs.
Robert Browning was one of the greatest of English poets, whose intense and original imagination enabled him to transform any subject he chose - whether everyday or sublime - into startling memorable verse. In his work he brought to life the personalities of a diverse range of characters, and introduced a new immediacy, colloquial energy and psychological complexity to the poetry of his day. This selection brings together verse ranging from early dramatic monologues such as the chilling 'My Last Duchess' and the ribald 'Fra Lippo Lippi', which show his gift for inhabiting the mind of another, to the popular children's poem 'The Pied Piper of Hamelin' and many lesser known works. All display his innovative techniques of diction, rhythm and symbol, which transformed Victorian poetry and influenced major poets of the twentieth century such as Ezra Pound, T. S. Eliot and Robert Frost.
