Volume 15 in The Complete Poetical Works of Robert Browning presents poetry Browning wrote in his seventies, his last two volumes: Parleyings (1887) and Asolando (1889). The former is the poet's last sustained meditation on life and on his times, a nine-section credo covering religion, history, poetry, politics, art, and music. Asolando is a coda to his whole oeuvre, a mixture of short love lyrics, historical monologues and anecdotes, light verse, and poems which are quite sui generis, all grouped around the theme of 'fancies and fact'. Both volumes are presented here with previously unknown sources, a wealth of new contextual material, and many textual nuances clarified, giving a fresh view of the last phase of Browning's career. What emerges is a poet more seriously Christian, Protestant, and Liberal than previously supposed, more interested in Britain's destiny and Empire, more enmeshed in the local battles of the 1880s?and a writer of considerable range and wit.
This is the first scholarly edition of Browning's greatest collection of short poems, Men & Women. A comprehensive introduction shows how new research has unearthed material which throws fresh light on the composition and dates of such famous pieces as `Fra Lippo Lippi', `Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came', and `One Word More: To E.B.B.'. This edition uses a critical text based on that of Browning's final collection, and has detailed introductions to the individual poems. It is the fifth volume in the highly praised Poetical Works of Robert Browning.
The Collected (Almost) Works of Michael Timko.Volume II consists of a number of essays written over the past 50 or so years. These essays, some scholarly, some not so scholarly, reflect his interests in various subjects, some scholarly, some not so. Their publication in this volume is chiefly for the benefit of immediate family and dear friends. The author hopes that those who dip into the book will immerse themselves completely; in other words get wet. In the words of that famous philosopher: Enjoy.
