  • Title: the Disclosure of Self in Robert Browning's Dramatic Monologues
    Title: The Disclosure of self in Robert Browning's dramatic monologues Author: Agnieszka Adamowicz-Pośpiech Adamowicz-Pośpiech Agnieszka. (2014). The Disclosure of Citation style: self in Robert Browning's dramatic monologues. W: W. Kalaga, M. Mazurek, M. Sarnek (red.) "Camouflage : secrecy and exposure in literary and cultural studies" (S. 112-126). Katowice : Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Śląskiego Agnieszka Adamowicz-Pośpiech The Disclosure of Self in Robert Browning’s Dramatic Monologues “To read poems,” wrote George Eliot in a review of Browning’s work, “is often a substitute for thought; fine-sounding conventional phrases and the sing-song of verse demand no co-operation in the reader; they glide over the mind.”1 Contrary to Eliot’s assessment, the aim of this paper is to show that by creating a disturbing persona characterized by a fluctuating self-consciousness which was distinctive not only of the fictional character but also of the listener/reader and the writer, Browning hampers uninvolved reading. In his dramatic monologues, the poet employs certain techniques to hide the real nature of his monologists, and the reader is forced painstakingly to gather the dispersed allusions, implications and insinuations so as to uncover the secrets of the speakers. Doubleness in Victorian poetry has been perceived by some critics as one of its defining characteristics.2 Amongst the terms coined to describe it is E.D.H. Johnson’s “dark companion”: “The expressed content [of a poem] has a dark companion, its imaginative counterpart, which accompanies and comments on apparent meaning in such a way as to suggest ulterior motives.”3 Isobel Armstrong proposed a parallel concept “double companion.”4 However, the essential words, seem to me, to be the “imaginative counterpart” – since it is only in the imagination of the reader that the counterpart may arise on condition that the reader becomes involved in unraveling the text.

  • Nineteenth-Century Perceptions of Robert Browning: the Poet Through His Own Eyes and Those of His Victorian Critics and Devoted Readers
    NINETEENTH-CENTURY PERCEPTIONS OF ROBERT BROWNING: THE POET THROUGH HIS OWN EYES AND THOSE OF HIS VICTORIAN CRITICS AND DEVOTED READERS By KRISTI MARTIN A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of WAKE FOREST UNIVERSITY in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS in the Department of English May 2010 Winston-Salem, North Carolina Approved By: Melissa Jenkins, Ph.D., Advisor ______________________________ Examining Committee: Eric Wilson, Ph.D., Chairman ______________________________ Jefferson Holdridge, Ph.D. ______________________________ Table of Contents Abstract…………………………………………………………………………………..iii Introduction………………………………………………………………………………1 Chapter One: The Good, the Bad, and the Fanatical: Browning and His Nineteenth- Century Reception……………………………………………………..…………5 Chapter Two: Going Where No Victorians Have Gone Before: The London Browning Society…………………………………………………………………………...29 Chapter Three: Being Robert Browning: The Autobiographical Poems of the Poet……52 Conclusion……………………………………………………………………………….81 Bibliography……………………………………………………………………………..85 ii Abstract Thesis under the direction of Melissa Jenkins, Ph.D., Professor of English. The London Browning Society has been addressed by scholars in modern biographies such as The Life of Robert Browning: A Critical Biography (1996) by Clyde De L. Ryals, and it was studied in a 1969 book by William S. Peterson titled Interrogating The Oracle: A History of the London Browning Society. However, this thesis goes further by approaching the Society as the equivalent of a modern day “fan” community, and by providing a close look at some of the Society’s published documents. The purpose of doing so is to form a picture of Browning’s reputation during his life and career based on the perceptions of the critics of the day, the Society members, and the thoughts he had on himself and his own works.

THE QUALITIES OF BROWNING I The opening lines of Pippa Passes pulse with the tremendous vitality which the reader of Browning has early learned to expect of his poetry: "Day! Faster and more fast, O'er night's brim day boils at last: Boils, pure gold, o'er the cloud-.cup's brim Where spurting and suppressed it lay, For not a froth-flake touched the rim Of yonder gap in the solid gray Of the eastern cloud, an hour away; But forth one wavelet, then another, curled, Till the whole sunrise, not to be suppressed, Rose, reddened, and its seething breast Flickered in bounds, grew gold, then overflowed the world." Of this remarkable vital force the last poem from his pen, the Epilogue to Asolando, shows no diminution.

  • The Looking-Glass World: Mirrors in Pre-Raphaelite Painting 1850-1915
    THE LOOKING-GLASS WORLD Mirrors in Pre-Raphaelite Painting, 1850-1915 TWO VOLUMES VOLUME I Claire Elizabeth Yearwood Ph.D. University of York History of Art October 2014 Abstract This dissertation examines the role of mirrors in Pre-Raphaelite painting as a significant motif that ultimately contributes to the on-going discussion surrounding the problematic PRB label. With varying stylistic objectives that often appear contradictory, as well as the disbandment of the original Brotherhood a few short years after it formed, defining ‘Pre-Raphaelite’ as a style remains an intriguing puzzle. In spite of recurring frequently in the works of the Pre-Raphaelites, particularly in those by Dante Gabriel Rossetti and William Holman Hunt, the mirror has not been thoroughly investigated before. Instead, the use of the mirror is typically mentioned briefly within the larger structure of analysis and most often referred to as a quotation of Jan van Eyck’s Arnolfini Portrait (1434) or as a symbol of vanity without giving further thought to the connotations of the mirror as a distinguishing mark of the movement. I argue for an analysis of the mirror both within the context of iconographic exchange between the original leaders and their later associates and followers, and also that of nineteenth- century glass production. The Pre-Raphaelite use of the mirror establishes a complex iconography that effectively remytholgises an industrial object, conflates contradictory elements of past and present, spiritual and physical, and contributes to a specific artistic dialogue between the disparate strands of the movement that anchors the problematic PRB label within a context of iconographic exchange.

  • Robert Browning (1812-89)
    Robert Browning (1812-89) Life.- Robert Browning was born at Camberwell, May 7, 1812, and was privately educated. His first published poem, Pauline, appeared in 1833.In 1846 he married Elizabeth Barrett, then more widely known as a poet than himself. Their happy married life was spent almost entirely in Florence. After Mrs Browning’s death in 1861, Browning settled in London, though he still made long visits to the Continent. In November 1889 he joined his son in Venice, and there he died on 12th December of that year. Works.- Pauline (1833) Strafford (1837) Sordello (1840) Bells and Pomegranates (8 parts, 1841-6) Christmas Eve and Easter Day (1850) Men and Women (1855) Dramatis Personae (1864) The Ring and the Book (1868-9) Balaustion’s Adventure (1871) Prince Hohenstiel-Schwangau (1871) Fifine at the Fair (1872) Red Cotton Night-Cap County (1873) Aristophanes’s Apology (1875) The Inn Album (1875) Pacchiarotto (1876) La Saisiaz (1878) The Two Poets of Croisic (1878) Dramatic Idylls 1879-80) Jacoseria (1883) Ferishtah’s Fancies (1884) Parleying with Certain People (1887) Asolando (1889) Character.- Browning was a man of intense and vigorous personality, his consciousness of health was vivid and had a boundless capacity for enjoyment. He loved life and was a familiar figure in society and a regular diner-out. Sound in body and mind, he was altogether unaffected by the melancholy which accompanied the spiritual upheaval of his age. His robust optimism, though stated in terms of the religious philosophy by which it was reinforced, had its roots in his healthy and happy nature.
