The poet of dramatic monologue,
By
This review is from: Selected Poems (Penguin Classics) (Paperback)
This is the opening of one of Browning's most well- known poems "Rabbi Ben Ezra"
Grow old along with me! The best is yet to be, The last of life, for which the first was made: Our times are in His hand Who saith ' A whole I planned, Youth shows but half; trust God: see all, nor be afraid!' Browning is a poet of the inner life.His dramatic monologues are in the words of F.B. Pinion the editor of the Collins Edition of ' Dramatis Personae' centered on ' the thought- processes and mental outlook of his characters than in dramatic action" The poems are rich in consideration of the moral and religious problems of his time. Lovers of poetry and students of human relationships can certainly be enriched by the reading of these poems.
