Contact Elizabeth Barrett Browning English poet, political thinker, and feminist. Elizabeth Moulton-Barrett was born March 6, 1806 at Coxhoe Hall, Durham, England, the eldest of 12 children of an autocratic father who forbade his children to marry. The family fortune came from Jamaican sugar plantations worked, of course, by slaves. Her girlhood was spent very happily at the family's stately home in Herefordshire, England. Elizabeth was educated at home, learning Greek, Latin, and several modern languages, including Portuguese, at an early age. She began writing very young, and in 1819, her father arranged for the printing of one of her poems (she was 13 at the time.) At 15 she was faced with the limitations of being a woman while her brothers were sent away for their education. Loneliness, loss and frustration perhaps predisposed her to physical illness some virus infection, a chronic lung ailment, then measles and continuing spasms of pain and fever. In 1821, Elizabeth injured her spine as a result of a fall. She recovered after more than a year, but was never again in robust health. After the death of her mother there followed many years of suffering and misfortune, deaths of brothers, a recurrence of her illness and the loss of the family fortune. Family disputes, adverse trading conditions and the end of slavery reduced the Barretts' income so that the stately home had to be sold. There was however enough wealth left to support a very comfortable lifestyle in a fashionable area of London. Her reputations as a poet and critic grew while she retreated to her sick room, unable to breathe in London's polluted air.

Choose another writer in this calendar: by name: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806-1861) English poet, the wife of Robert Browning , the most respected and successful woman poet of the Victorian period. Elizabeth Browning was considered seriously for the laureateship that eventually was awarded to Tennyson in 1850. Her greatest work, SONNETS FROM THE PORTUGUESE (1850), is a sequence of love sonnets addresses to her husband. Browning's vivid intelligence and ethereal physical appearance made a lifelong impression to Ruskin, Carlyle, Thackeray, Rossetti, Hawthorne, and many others. "What do we give to out beloved? A little faith all undisproved A little dust to overweep, And bitter memories to make The whole earth blasted for our sake. He giveth His beloved, sleep." (from 'The Sleep') Elizabeth Barrett Moulton-Barrett was born at Coxhoe Hall, near Durham. Her father was Edward Moulton-Barrett, whose wealth was derived from sugar plantations in the British colony of Jamaica. Mary Graham-Clarke, her mother, came from a family with similar commercial interests. Elizabeth grew up in the west of England and was largely educated at home by a tutor, quickly learning French, Latin and Greek. Both parents supported her early writing and many of her birthday odes to her parents and siblings still survive. At the age of 14, she wrote her first collection of verse, THE BATTLE OF MARATHON. It was followed by AN ESSAY ON MIND (1826), privately printed at her father's expense. Her translation of PROMETHEUS BOUND (1833) with other poems appeared anonymously. Browning's first work to gain critical attention was THE SERAPHIM, AND OTHER POEMS (1838).

Elizabeth Barrett Browning Researcher: Rachel Sahlman Artist: Dick Strandberg "How do I love thee, let me count the ways." These words, penned by Elizabeth Barrett Browning, are some of the most widely-known love lyrics in Victorian English poetry. Elizabeth Barrett Browning was born at Coxhoe Hall, Durham, England on March 6, 1806. She was the first of eleven children born to Edward and Mary Barrett. Browning was privately educated and spent much of her childhood in the country. It was a very happy childhood until Browning became seriously ill at age 15. She was virtually incapacitated as the result of a spinal injury and lung ailment. In 1832, Browning moved with her family to Sidmouth, Devon and then several years later to London. In 1833, Browning's translation of Prometheus Bound received high praise. After moving to London, Browning began publishing her own writings. Her first collection entitled The Seraphim and Other Poems was published in 1838, and her second volume Poems, by E. Barrett Barrett was published in 1844. The second volume was also published in the United States and included an introduction by Edgar Allan Poe. After the drowning death of her brother in the early 1840s, Browning became a virtual recluse. She did not want to meet anyone who did not belong to her close circle of friends, and she conducted most of her friendships through letters. However, in 1845, Browning received a telegram from the poet Robert Browning. The telegram read "I love your verses with all my hear, dear Miss Barrett. I do, as I say, love these books with all my heart - and I love you too." The two met several months later and fell in love. They wrote to each other daily and the letters from their courtship are a wonderful record of its progress. During this period, Browning composed her famous Sonnets from the Portuguese, which were published in 1850.

Yes, my own Ba, I could with all the past were to do over again, that in it I might somewhat more, never so little more, conform in the outward homage, to the inward feeling, What I have professed, (for I have performed nothing) seems to fall short of what my first love required even, and when I think of this moment's love...I could repent, as I say. Words can never tell you, however, form them, transform them anyway, how perfectly dear you are to me, perfectly dear to my heart and soul.
