Böcker av Robert Browning

Selected Poems (1923) is a collection of poems by American poet Robert Frost. Dedicated to Edward Thomas, a friend of Frost¿s and an important English poet who died toward the end of the First World War, Selected Poems is a wonderful sampling of poems from Frost¿s early collections, including A Boy¿s Will and North of Boston. Known for his plainspoken language and dedication to the images and rhythms of rural New England, Robert Frost is one of Americäs most iconic poets, a voice to whom generations of readers have turned in search of beauty, music, and life.¿Mowing¿ envisions the poet¿s work through the prism of rural labor. ¿There was never a sound beside the wood but one / And that was my long scythe whispering to the ground. / What was it it whispered?¿ The speaker does not know, but continues his task, hypnotized by its rhythm and simple music. In ¿After Apple-Picking,¿ as fall gives over to winter, the poet remembers in dreams how the ¿Magnified apples appear and disappear, / Stem end and blossom end¿ as he climbs the ladder into the heart of the tree. Both a symbol for life and a metaphor for the poetic act, apple picking leaves the poet ¿overtired / Of the great harvest [he himself] desired¿, awaiting sleep as he describes ¿its coming on,¿ wondering what, if anything, it will bring. ¿The Road Not Taken,¿ perhaps Frost¿s most famous poem, is a meditation on fate and free will that follows a traveler in an autumn landscape, unsure of which path to take, but certain he cannot stand still.With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Robert Frost¿s Selected Poems is a classic of American literature reimagined for modern readers.

In reproducing sixty-six letters in the Carl H. Pforzheimer Library, plus eight letters or portions of letters previously published, this book offers one of the best sources available for the last fourteen years of Browning's life. Written to a dear friend who was also a learned lady, the letters deal with Browning's poetry, his social life, and his friendships. They also give some of his views on the nature of poetry, of art, and of religion. The editor's introduction offers the reader a view of Mrs. Fitzgerald and her family, of the social background with which many of the letters are concerned, and of Browning, his sister, and his son. Notes clarify the many allusions that appear in the letters. An appendix by Marcelle Thiebaux includes careful bibliographical descriptions of the manuscripts and a classified list of the writing paper Browning used, information which should enable future editors to assign at least approximate dates to some of the letters Browning himself left undated.

"The soul, little else, is worth study," is a favorite quotation among Browning readers, taken from his introductory note to "Sordello." In whatsoever condition the soul is, it is still his immortal theme. "The Soul's Tragedy," to his mind, occurs, when all primal elements are filmed over by conventionalities, or by human wisdom, or by utilitarian considerations, until they have oozed away and no real personality is left. The fixedness of the soulless soul is what the author of "Christmas Eve" considers the most fearful and solemn death.This poem is a narrative, and the narrator finds himself dodging a storm. He seeks to enter a little dissenting chapel, situated.Where the town's bad blood once slept corruptly.He snuggles himself up as closely as he can in the little four-by-six porch which serves as a doorway. He becomes interested in the different specimens of human nature that hurriedly and drippingly crowd past him to enter the door, the inner door, whose latch "grew more obstinate the more they fumbled."
