Home Authors Titles Keyword Search ... Reference Elizabeth Barrett Browning From an early age Elizabeth suffered a chronic lung ailment. She spent most of her time in a darkened room writing poety and many letters. The famous English poet Robert Browning admired her "Poems" (1844) so much that he wrote to her. They met, fell in love, and were secretly married in 1846. Soon after their marriage they ran away to Florence, Italy, where Elizabeth began a remarkable physical recovery. In 1849, they had a son, Robert Wiedeman Barrett Browning. She increasingly took up contemporary issues including the Italian Nationalist cause, the abolition of slavery in the United States, and the position of women in Victorian society. Elizabeth died on June 29, 1861. Many critics agree that Elizabeth's best poems appear in " Sonnets from the Portuguese ," a series of 44 sonnets recording the growth of her love for Robert Browning. ("Portuguese" was Robert's pet name for Elizabeth.) The 43rd is Elizabeth's most famous poem. It begins, "How do I love thee? Let me count the ways."

Victorian Poetry Elizabeth Barrett Browning Elizabeth Barrett, an English poet of the Romantic Movement, was born in 1806 in Durham, England. The oldest of twelve children, Elizabeth was the first in her family born in England in over two hundred years. For centuries, the Barrett family, who were part Creole, had lived in Jamaica, where they owned sugar plantations and relied on slave labor. Elizabeth's father, Edward Barrett, chose to raise his family in England, while his fortune grew in Jamaica. Educated at home, Elizabeth apparently had read passages from Paradise Lost and a number of Shakespearean plays, among other great works, before the age of ten. By her twelfth year she had written her first "epic" poem, which consisted of four books of rhyming couplets. Two years later, Elizabeth developed a lung ailment that plagued her for the rest of her life. Doctors began treating her with morphine, which she would take until her death. While saddling a pony when she was fifteen, Elizabeth also suffered a spinal injury. Despite her ailments, her education continued to flourish. Throughout her teenage years, Elizabeth taught herself Hebrew so that she could read the Old Testament; her interests later turned to Greek studies. Accompanying her appetite for the classics was a passionate enthusiasm for her Christian faith. In 1826 Elizabeth anonymously published her collection

ELIZABETH BARRETT BROWNING BROWNING, ELIZABETH BARRETT There is here an interval of silence in the correspondence which busied her secluded life at all ages; but with an impulse of self-protection she went to work as soon as her strength sufficed. One of her tasks was a part taken in the Chaucer Modernized (1841), a work suggested by Wordsworth, to which he, Leigh Hunt, Horne and others contributed. In 1841 she returned to Wimpole Street, and in that and the following year she was at work on two series of articles on the Greek Christian poets and on the English poets, written for the Athenaeum under the editorship of Mr C. W. Dilke. In. work she found some interest and even some delight: Once I wished not to live, but the faculty of life seems to have sprung up in me again from under the crushing foot of heavy grief. Be it all as God wills. A new edition of Mrs Brownings poems was called for in 1853, and at about this time, in Florence, she began to work on Aurora Leigh. She was still writing this poem when the Brownings were again in England, in 5855. Tennyson there read to them his newly-written Maud. After another interval in Paris they were in London againMrs Browning for the last time. She was with her dear cousin Kenyon during the last months of his life. In October 1856 the Brownings returned to their Florentine home, Mrs Browning leaving her completed Aurora Leigh for publication. The book had an immediate success; a second edition was required in a fortnight, a third a few months later. In the fourth edition (1859) several corrections were made. The review in Blackwood was written by W. E. Aytoun, that in the North British by Coventry Patmore.

In 1821, she began to suffer from a nervous disorder that was aggravated further by the death of her mother. Browning had a passion for classical learning and taught herself Hebrew in order to read the Old Testament. Hugh Stuart Boyd encouraged her in her studies of Greek authors. Her own major volume of accomplished verse appeared in 1838 under the title The Seraphim and Other Poems . That same year, however, the trauma of her brother Edward's drowning off the coast of Devon left her an invalid and recluse over the following five years. Her next volume simply entitled

Nevermore Alone upon the threshold of my door Of individual life I shall command The uses of my soul, nor lift my hand Serenely in the sunshine as before, Without the sense of that which I forbore Thy touch upon the palm. The widest land Doom takes to part us, leaves thy heart in mine With pulses that beat double. What I do And what I dream include thee, as the wine Must taste of its own grapes. And when I sue God for myself, He hears that name of thine, And sees within my eyes the tears of two.

Elizabeth Barrett Browning 1806-1861 Her father, later the High Sheriff of Herefordshire, had the house flamboyantly rebuilt in a Turkish style complete with minarets. No wonder sightseers came from Malvern to gape in wonder. Here in this secluded place Elizabeth, the eldest of 11 surviving children grew up largely insulated from the surrounding community together with her adored pets including a tame squirrel, rabbits, a goldfinch, a hen and Moses the Shetland pony. Happy and carefree as a child, this ended at puberty when bed-ridden, laudanum-taking hypochondria set in. This malaise gave her the space and time to read and write poetry which she regarded as universal truth. She had composed birthday odes since the age of nine when her father had jokingly rewarded her with 10 shillings as the 'Poet Laureate of Hope End'. Gloomy and morbid, Elizabeth found in composing poetry a channel for her passions that frightened her and her imagination that was often ' too powerful for me to control'. Even before her 14th birthday her father had printed 50 copies her long, epic 'Battle of Marathon', convincing her that literature was to be her life. She related to such poets as Shelley, Keats and Byron whom she strove to emulate. Indeed Elizabeth's 'Lines on the Death of Lord Byron' appearing in The Globe and Traveller was one of many teenage works printed in magazines before copies of her personal publication An Essay on Mind was sold nationally as well as in Ledbury.
