Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Paperback / softback Book

Elizabeth Barrett Browning Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

This biography of Elizabeth Barrett Browning, written with reference to Browning correspondence only recently available, argues that the poet was a strong and determined woman largely responsible for her own incarceration in Wimpole Street.

The author traces her life from her early childhood and adolescence and explores her marriage.

She draws a picture of early Victorian family life and aims to show that Elizabeth was a considerable and dedicated poet, self-willed, witty and courageous.

Forster has also edited the companion volume "Selected Poems" of Elizabeth Barrett Browning, and is author of several other biographies.
