Autorenporträt
Robert Browning (1812–1889) was a towering figure in Victorian poetry, celebrated for his psychological depth, dramatic monologue form and innovative use of diction. Born in Camberwell, England, Browning harbored literary aspirations early in life, influenced by his cultured family's passion for the arts. His career commenced with 'Pauline' (1833) but it was 'Paracelsus' (1835) and 'Sordello' (1840) that began to establish his reputation, though the latter was notorious for its perceived obscurity. Browning's literary prowess attained new heights following his marriage to poet Elizabeth Barrett in 1846 – an elopement defying her despotic father. Their loving relationship is chronicled in the compilation 'Love Letters between Robert Browning and Elizabeth Barrett Barrett,' vividly illustrating their profound mutual influence. After Elizabeth's death in 1861, Browning produced some of his most acclaimed work, including the compilation 'Men and Women' (1855), which contained some of his best-known poems like 'Fra Lippo Lippi' and 'Andrea del Sarto.' The pinnacle of Browning's oeuvre is often considered to be 'The Ring and the Book' (1868–1869), a masterpiece that showcases his narrative ingenuity and psychological insight. Throughout his career, Browning experimented with form and language, looking to depict the human psyche and complexities of social issues through dramatic monologues that often employed a distinct, colloquial voice. His literary output, which also includes 'Dramatis Personae' (1864) and 'Balaustion's Adventure' (1871), have cemented his position as one of the foremost poets of the Victorian era, his legacy carried forth by the Browning Society, formed in his honor in 1881.
