Browning and the Dramatic Monologue: Nature and Interpretation of an Overlooked Form of Literature is a book written by Samuel Silas Curry and originally published in 1908. The book explores the dramatic monologue as a literary form, with a focus on the works of Robert Browning. Curry begins by defining the dramatic monologue and discussing its origins and development as a form of poetry. He then delves into the works of Browning, analyzing his use of the dramatic monologue in poems such as ""My Last Duchess"" and ""Fra Lippo Lippi."" Throughout the book, Curry provides close readings of Browning's poems and offers his own interpretations of their meanings. He also discusses the historical and cultural contexts in which Browning was writing, and how these contexts influenced his work. Overall, Browning and the Dramatic Monologue is a comprehensive study of a specific form of literature and its use by one of the most important poets of the Victorian era. It offers insights into Browning's poetry and sheds light on the broader literary and cultural movements of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
