About This Book

The volume gathers personal letters exchanged by Robert Browning and Elizabeth Barrett, presenting a close view of their intellectual and emotional partnership. Correspondence blends affectionate domestic detail with sustained literary discussion, including reactions to each other's work, practical concerns about publication and copyright, health and travel arrangements, and the social circles that shaped them. Occasional playful anecdotes and editorial corrections appear alongside earnest praise and mutual encouragement. The collection is arranged as dated letters, supplemented by portraits and facsimiles, and conveys both the private rhythms of daily life and the shared artistic ambitions that informed their relationship.

EXTRACT FROM PREFATORY NOTE BY MR. ROBERT BROWNING.

‘In a recent “Memoir of Elizabeth Barrett Browning,” by John H. Ingram, it is observed that “such essays on her personal history as have appeared, either in England or elsewhere, are replete with mistakes or misstatements.” For these he proposes to substitute “a correct if short memoir”: but, kindly and appreciative as may be Mr. Ingram’s performance, there occur not a few passages in it equally “mistaken and misstated.”’

The LETTERS of ELIZABETH BARRETT BROWNING. Edited, with Biographical Additions, by Frederic G. Kenyon. In 2 vols. With Portraits. Third Edition. Crown 8vo. 15s. net.
