Two Essays on Robert Browning by Felix Emmanuel Schelling Pdf
Excerpt from Two Essays on Robert Browning: I. Robert Browning and the Poetry of the Future, an Address Before the Browning Society of Philadelphia; II. Robert Browning and the Arabesque in Art, a Lecture Delivered to the Senior Class in Arts of the University of Pennsylvania The following words were completed some days before the recent news of Mr. Browning's death. Of Mr. Browning, the man, it becomes us not yet to speak; the memory of him belongs to those into whose personal grief it would be only an impertinence for a stranger to in quire. Time has not yet made the author's life the inheritance of the public. Mr. Browning's life has been all that could be wished, and here is neither time nor place for an obtrusive eulogy of that life. But Robert Browning, the author, has been long the common property of us all. His works have been so long before us, and his name has been so landed and linked with the immortals that have gone before, that death can add little to an apotheosis already so complete. To speak of him in praise or in dispraise has been long a fashion among us, and the ac eident of his recent demise can assuredly make no further utterance nu fitting. It is yet too soon to attempt an estimate of this life of pro longed literary activity, or to seek for the explanation of a contemporary reputation almost unexampled in the annals of literature; but it can never be impertinent to add - if not to the adulation that streams from a thousand altars - at least a word to the better understanding of a figure, which, however taste may change, must always be regarded as one of the most prominent and interesting of our century. Moreover, the ex traordinary prominence which Mr. Browning's followers have long claimed for him, a claim which has sought to dethrone all the poets of our tongue, save the prince of poets himself, is in itself a challenge to all men to speak; and if, as has been said, Mr. Browning has divided the critics into two hostile camps, so portentous a power may well stand for a subject of attention at any time.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1868 edition. Excerpt: ... 299 EPILOGUE. In bringing to a close the various thoughts evoked by a few grand utterances, some concluding words will not be out of place. If at a first backward glance over the whole series of essays, it should appear to the reader that the speculative or religious views in each are inconsistent one with another, it should be remembered that each poem has been treated as a separate effort, as forming by itself, in a quasidramatic guise, a distinct train of thought. The train of thought, which was the basis of each poem, must necessarily be treated, in the development of it which has been attempted, as consistent only with itself; and the first duty of the essayist was to preserve, as far as possible, in all his ramifications, the same principle of intellectual research as supported the actual poem in hand. And yet, as will appear more plainly in the following words, there runs through the seeming inconsistency of each theme a thread of unity which supports the whole. Let us shortly review, and bind together into one, the subjects to which our attention has been directed. We have been taught, then, how to aspire in our love passion; we have learned the consequences of thwarting intellect, and the sin of checking human love or charity; we have learned too the terrible retributions which overtake little evil doings, and the necessity of using failure as a positive force. We have seen the duty of man to man in checking or avenging evil-doing; we have seen how sexual love, human love, failure and duty, were all united in the grand ideal of Sordello; we have found in the striving of David the manifestation of an attribute, the spirit of prayer, without which neither passion, nor intellect, nor love, are of any avail. Is there not a strong...

The Infinite Moment and Other Essays in Robert Browning by William O. Raymond Pdf
With the exception of the closing essay, the contents of this book represent a garnering of various articles on the poetry of Browning printed during the course of years in scholarly journals. During the sixty-five years after Browning's death, his poetic reputation varied as widely as in his lifetime, and from the time of the publication of The Ring and the Book in 1868-69 until his death in 1889, his niche beside Tennyson as one of the two master poets of the Victorian era was secure. Criticism was succeeded by panegyric, reaching its acme into the adulation of the Browning society and its mushroom offshoots in England and America. In this second edition, three articles on Browning and his poetry written after the first edition have been added.
