Anotace knihy

Excerpt from Robert Browning's Prose Life of Strafford Is it not clear that the passage in italics is a poet's conception, and not a historian's? Is it not clear that Browning had thought of a character-study of Strafi'ord, Eliot and Vane, a monodrama of each, which - like Andrea del Sarto, Fra Lippo Lippi and the like - would have been to us worth half-a-dozen of his drama of Straford? Does not the fact of Browning's having written, or being engaged on, the Life of Strafford in 1836, explain why - when Macready, on May 26, 1836, askt Browning to write him a p1ay,-the poet at once suggested Strafford: Strafford, a man intensely interest ing to the analyser of character in verse, - a man knowing the better and choosing the worse, - but impossible for a dramatist who brings in the heroes of the Common wealth, unless he alters the facts of history; just as im possible as Shakspere found King John, tho' he could keep his Bastard Falconbridge clear of annals.
