The Poetical Works Of Robert Browning: Sordello. Pippa Passes (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781279414545)

This volume contains two of Robert Browning's most significant works: "Sordello" and "Pippa Passes." "Sordello," a lengthy narrative poem, is known for its complexity and exploration of the Italian Renaissance. It delves into the life of Sordello da Goito, a troubadour in 13th-century Italy, examining themes of ambition, art, and the human condition.

"Pippa Passes," a dramatic poem, follows Pippa, a young silk mill worker, as she takes her annual holiday. Her joyful singing unwittingly influences the lives of several people, leading them to moments of crisis and resolution. Both works exemplify Browning's innovative use of dramatic monologue and his profound engagement with history and psychology. This collection offers a valuable insight into the genius of one of Victorian England's major poets.
