The Poetical Works of Robert Browning: Volume II: Strafford, Sordello (Oxford English Texts: Browning)

Volume II contains Stafford , a play seldom reprinted, and Sordello , a poem commonly, but mistakenly, neglected as "unintelligible." The book looks at Browning's correspondence with Emily Hickey, the first editor of Strafford , and important copies of Sordello that help to shed light on Browning's attempts to revise the poem. Also included are such of the juvenilia that survive.
