Published under her maiden name Elizabeth Barrett Barrett, Poems is a two-volume collection of Browning's poetry that includes "The Cry of the Children," "A Drama of Exile," and "Lady Geraldine's Courtship," among others. In Poems, Browning begins to feature strong female characters, a trend that would eventually lead to her 1857 masterpiece Aurora Leigh. Additionally, she recognizes poet George Sand, the pseudonym of French female author Amantine-Lucile-Aurore Dupi, whom Browning praised as "true genius" for her feminist writing and style. Notably, Poems gained the attention of poet Robert Browning, Barrett's eventual husband, whom she praises in one of the collection's poems. After reading Poems, Browning wrote Barrett a letter, beginning the correspondence of over 550 letters that led up to their marriage in 1846.. 1st Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine.
