Beschreibung

An beautiful complete two volume set of poems written by Robert Browning (May 1812 December 1889), an English poet and playwright whose mastery of dramatic verse made him one of the foremost Victorian poets. Browning is often known by some of his short poems, such as Rabbi Ben Ezra, How they brought the good News to Aix, Evelyn Hope, The Pied Piper of Hamelin, A Grammarian's Funeral, A Death in the Desert. Browning"s fame today rests mainly on his dramatic monologues, in which the words not only convey setting and action but also reveal the speaker"s character. In an armorial prize binding dated 1946. Includes frontispiece portraits of Browning to each Volume retaining their tissue guards. In gilt half calf armorial bindings with cloth boards. Externally, generally smart, lightly rubbed in places. The remains of a sticker have been left to a board on Volume II. Internally, firmly bound, bright and clean with the odd spot to the front pages of the volumes. Very Good Indeed.
