Recitation of CONFESSIONS by Robert Browning (London, England, 1812-1889, Venice, Italy)
About the author (Sobre o autor):
Robert Browning (7 May 1812 – 12 December 1889) was an English poet and playwright whose dramatic monologues set him high among Victorian poets. His verse was noted for irony, characterization, dark humor, social commentary, historical settings, and challenging vocabulary and syntax. His career started well - the long poems Pauline (1833) and Paracelsus (1835) were acclaimed - but his reputation dwindled for a time - his 1840 poem Sordello was seen as willfully obscure - and it took him over a decade to recover, when so he had switched from Shelleyan ways to a more personal style. In 1846 Browning married the elder poet Elizabeth Barrett and went to live in Italy. When she died in 1861, he published the collection Men and Women (1855). His Dramatis Personae (1864) and epic book poem The Ring and the Book (1868-1869) made him an important British poet. He continued to be prolific, but his reputation today rests primarily on his middle period. By his death in 1889, he was seen as a sage and poet-philosopher who fueled Victorian political and social discourse. Societies to study his work formed during his lifetime and survived in Britain and the United States well into the 20th century.

...................................................
Robert Browning (7 de maio de 1812 - 12 de dezembro de 1889) foi um poeta e dramaturgo inglês cujos monólogos dramáticos o colocaram em alta entre os poetas vitorianos. Seu verso era conhecido pela ironia, caracterização, humor negro, comentário social, cenários históricos e vocabulário e sintaxe desafiadores. Sua carreira começou bem - os longos poemas Pauline (1833) e Paracelsus (1835) foram aclamados - mas sua reputação encolheu por um tempo - seu poema Sordello de 1840 foi visto como intencionalmente obscuro - e levou mais de uma década para se recuperar, quando então ele tinha mudado de formas Shelleyan para um estilo mais pessoal. Em 1846, Browning casou-se com a poetisa mais velha Elizabeth Barrett e foi morar na Itália. Quando ela morreu em 1861, ele publicou a coleção Homens e Mulheres (1855). Seu Dramatis Personae (1864) e o poema épico em formato de livro The Ring and the Book (1868-1869) fizeram dele um importante poeta britânico. Ele continuou a ser prolífico, mas sua reputação hoje se baseia principalmente em seu período intermediário. Por sua morte em 1889, ele era visto como um sábio e poeta-filósofo que alimentou o discurso político e social vitoriano. Sociedades para estudar seu trabalho se formaram durante sua vida e sobreviveram na Grã-Bretanha e nos Estados Unidos até o século XX.
