Men and Women and Other Poems

Men and Women and Other Poems

In Men and women Browning exhibits the flair, lyricism and idiosyncrasy which have captivated, enthralled and sometimes baffled his readers. In poems including 'Fra Lippo Lippi' and 'Bishop Blougram's Apology', Browning enters the personality and language of his characters, revelling in their unwitting self-revelation. Elsewhere Browning contemplates the relationship between love and the lyric, the poet and the painter, poetry and music.
