《伊丽莎白·巴雷特·布朗宁与罗伯特·布朗宁》由上海外语教育出版社出版。
Elizabeth Barrett Brownirig and Robert Browning are known for their remarkablelove story, recorded in their letters to each other and such poems as her 'How doI love thee？Let me count the ways'. It was after their marriage and move to Italy -to avoid the wrath of Barrett Browning's controlling and eccentric father - thateach poet wrote their most modern and thought-provoking work, including the'dramatic monologues' of Browning's Men and Women.This biography traces the poets' lives, starting with Barrett Browning's intensivestudy of Greek （unusual for a girl of her time） and other languages, and her firstpoems, published anonymously at her father's expense. Browning, by contrast,wrote little poetry in his youth, branched out into playwriting in his twenties, andalthough he wrote many of his more memorable poems in the early 1850s,achieved critical acclaim only after his wife's death in 1861.The author describes Barrett Browning's complicated relations with her family;the couple's life in Pisa, Florence and Paris; the birth of their son, Pen; the growthand inspiration of their poetic styles; Barrett Browning's progressive social andpolitical ideas as expressed in such works as Aurora Leigh; and Browning's later lifeback in England, when he became a well-known figure in London society andpublished work including his late masterpiece The Ring and the Book, Other impor-tant aspects of the poets' lives are explored; their travels and their friendships withpeople prominent in the worlds of art, writing, and social theory, among themJohn Ruskin, Alfred Tennyson, W.M. Thackeray, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, and theart historian and feminist Anna BrownellJameson.
