E.A.W. St George

Browning and Conversation

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Andrew St George argues that Browning's world is essentially interactive, a dramatised process drawing speaker and reader together and that his poems both encourage and require the kind of engagement typically required of the Victorians in their conversations.By examining a series of specific poems in the context of Victorian conversation and society Andrew St George offers a new and exciting way of appreciating and enjoying some of Browning's best and most significant work.
