Volume I gathers the earlier poetry of Robert Browning (1812–1889), one of the foremost Victorian poets, including his celebrated dramatic monologues and shorter lyrics — works such as My Last Duchess, Fra Lippo Lippi, and Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came — which established his reputation as a poet of extraordinary psychological depth and technical originality, capable of inhabiting the minds of historical, fictional, and morally complex characters with remarkable vividness. Volume II continues with his longer and later works, including the ambitious verse novel The Ring and the Book, his philosophical and religious meditations, and the dramatic poems that occupied his mature years, completing a body of work that, alongside that of his equally celebrated wife Elizabeth Barrett Browning, secured his place as one of the supreme voices of nineteenth-century English literature.
