EBOOK DESCRIPTION: |
|
Sonnets from the Portuguese: A Celebration of Love was written by
Elizabeth Barrett Browning, (1806-1861) - one of the most influential
female poets in British literature. Elizabeth secretly wrote the 44
love sonnets in 1845-6 during her courtship with fellow poet Robert
Browning. The two met after Elizabeth praised one of Robert’s poems in
her work, “The Courtship of Lady Geraldine”.
Thus began an exchange of love letters between the two that culminated
in their meeting in person, as each poem marks a point in their
evolving relationship. Elizabeth did not show the poems to Robert until
after they were married in September of 1846. At her husband's
suggestion, the second edition of her Poems included her love sonnets
which were first published in 1850. In 1861, Elizabeth Barrett
Browning died at the age of 55. Her son, born 1849, and husband
returned to England after her death. The sonnets helped increase
Elizabeth’s popularity as a writer and the story of their romance
continues to be famous today. |
