Rezensionen

"...excellent...explicates obscurities of meaning more fully - its exposition of the narrative of 'Sordello' is a marvel of tenacity - and has more to tell about influences which came to Browning from a greater distance: its brilliant note on 'Pippa Passes', Introduction 49ff, for example, convincingly cites the 'Aeneid' and Montaigne...Woolford and karlin are meticulous readers of Browning...Longman's notes more amply supplement the poet's eventual desire to be of assistance to his readers." - The Times Literary Supplement
