Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Browning Cyclopedia: A Guide to the Study of the Works of Robert Browning, With Copius Explanatory Notes and References on All Difficult Passages The demand for a second edition of this work within three months of its publication is a sufficient proof that such a book meets a want, notwithstanding the many previous attempts of a more or less partial character which have been made to explain Browning "to the general." With the exception of certain superfine reviewers, to whom nothing is obscure - except such things as they are asked to explain without previous notice - every one admits that Browning requires more or less elucidation. It is said by some that I have explained too much, but this might be said of most commentaries, and certainly of every dictionary. It is difficult to know precisely where to draw the line. If I am not to explain (say for lady readers) what is meant by the phrase "De te fabula narratur" I know not why any of the classical quotations should be translated. If Browning is hard to understand, it must be on account of the obscurity of his language, of his thought, or the purport of his verses; very often the objection is made that the difficulty applies to all these. I have not written for the "learned," but for the people at large. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
