Extractions: Elizabeth Barrett was born into a multimillionaire (in modern terms) family whose fortune came from Jamaican sugar plantations which were worked, of course, by slaves. Her girlhood was spent very happily at the family's stately home in Herefordshire, England. She was the eldest of twelve children, and from the beginning something of a child prodigy, highly intelligent, determined and dedicated to becoming a poet. She outclassed her brothers at Latin and Greek, and could soon read in the modern languages of French, Italian, and Portuguese. Poetry She wrote poetry from her earliest years, but at the age of 20 she began to interest wider literary circles. After the death of her mother in 1828, there followed many years of suffering and misfortune: deaths of brothers, a recurrence of her illness and the loss of the family fortune. Family disputes, adverse trading conditions and the end of slavery reduced the Barretts' income so drastically that the stately home had to be sold. There was, however, enough wealth left to support a very comfortable lifestyle in a fashionable area of London, 50 Wimpole Street. Her reputations as a poet and critic grew while she retreated to her sick room, unable to breathe in London's polluted air. Then one day she allowed

Extractions: [Content] www.literaryheritage.org.uk Home People Places Themes ... Site map Elizabeth Barrett was born near Durham on 6 March 1806, the eldest of twelve children. Three years later, the family moved to Hope End, near Ledbury in Herefordshire where they were to live for the next 23 years. The picturesque setting in a secluded valley near the Malvern Hills is reflected in Elizabeth's poetry throughout her life. In The lost bower , published in 1844, she recalls Green the land is where my daily steps Dappled very close with shade The original house at Hope End was soon demolished and replaced by an oriental structure, complete with turrets. The gardens were landscaped and the sumptuous effect became famous as a local tourist attraction. Elizabeth was a studious child, learning both Greek and Latin, and wrote verses from an early age, encouraged by her father. An epic poem entitled The Battle of Marathon in the style of Pope was privately printed (50 copies) by her very proud father for her fourteenth birthday.

Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback English poet, the wife of Robert Browning , the most respected and successful woman poet of the Victorian period, considered seriously for the laureateship that eventually was awarded to Tennyson in 1850. Elizabeth Browning's greatest work, SONNETS FROM THE PORTUGUESE (1850), is a sequence of love sonnets addresses to her husband. Her vivid intelligence and ethereal physical appearance made a lifelong impression to all of the friends of the Brownings, among them Ruskin, Carlyle, Thackeray, Rossetti, Hawthorne, and many others. "What do we give to out beloved? (from 'The Sleep') Elizabeth Browning was born in Coxhoe Hall, Durham. Her father was Edward Moulton Barrett, whose wealth was derived from Jamaican plantations. She grew up in the west of England and was largely educated at home by a tutor, quickly learning Latin and Greek and reed and write avidly. At the age of 14 she wrote her first collection of verse, THE BATTLE OF MARATHON. It was followed by AN ESSAY ON MIND (1826), privately printed at her father's expense, and a translation of PROMETHEUS BOUND (1833) with other poems, which appeared anonymously. Her first work to gain critical attention was THE SERAPHIM, AND OTHER POEMS (1838). In the early 1820s she injured her spine in a riding accident, and was long an invalid, using morphine for the pains for the rest of her life. In 1932 the Barrett family moved to Sidmouth and in 1835 to London, where she began to contribute several periodicals. In 1838, seriously ill as a result of a broken blood-vessel, she was sent to Torquay. After the death of her brother, who drowned in Torqauy, she developed almost morbid fear of meeting anyone, and devoted herself entirely to literature. When her POEMS (1844) appeared, it gained a huge popularity and was praised among others by the American writer

Extractions: Elizabeth Moulton-Barrett was born March 6, 1806 at Coxhoe Hall, Durham, England, the eldest of 12 children of an autocratic father who forbade his children to marry. The family fortune came from Jamaican sugar plantations worked, of course, by slaves. Her girlhood was spent very happily at the family's stately home in Herefordshire, England. Elizabeth was educated at home, learning Greek, Latin, and several modern languages, including Portuguese, at an early age. She began writing very young, and in 1819, her father arranged for the printing of one of her poems (she was 13 at the time.) At 15 she was faced with the limitations of being a woman while her brothers were sent away for their education. Loneliness, loss and frustration perhaps predisposed her to physical illness some virus infection, a chronic lung ailment, then measles and continuing spasms of pain and fever. In 1821, Elizabeth injured her spine as a result of a fall. She recovered after more than a year, but was never again in robust health. After the death of her mother there followed many years of suffering and misfortune, deaths of brothers, a recurrence of her illness and the loss of the family fortune. Family disputes, adverse trading conditions and the end of slavery reduced the Barretts' income so that the stately home had to be sold. There was however enough wealth left to support a very comfortable lifestyle in a fashionable area of London. Her reputations as a poet and critic grew while she retreated to her sick room, unable to breathe in London's polluted air.

Extractions: ELIZABETH BARRETT BROWNING (1806-1861) T he love story of Robert Browning and Elisabeth Barret often reminds of the courtship and marriage of their contemporaries, Richard and Clara Schumann. In both romances a possessive father tries to prevent his daughter's match; in each case a sense of spiritual kinship, shared artistic purpose, and deep passion prevail over the obstacles, and, interestingly, in both stories it is the woman who is the more famous artist at the start of the relationship. Robert Browning enjoyed a privileged only-child existence, complete with excellent tutors, travel, and the leisure to pursue his literary inclinations. His early critical reception was eclipsed by that of Tennyson's. While his publication of PARACELSUS in 1835 did win him recognition, his next published work, SORDELLO (1840), met with such vituperation as to require almost two decades to repair his standing. It was during this period of emotional fragility that he read Elizabeth Barrett's 1844 poems. Elizabeth Barrett had received a classical education and displayed a literary gift from girlhood. Her first collection of poetry was so highly regarded that she was considered to succeed Wordsworth as Poet Laureate. Made an invalid as much by a back injury she suffered as a youth as by the controlling presence of her jealous father, EBB was a reclusive, bedridden spinster-poetess when Robert Browning initiated a correspondence with her in 1845. Their love letters, some of the most eloquent in the language, led to a meeting from which sprang up between them, despite the objections of her father and Elizabeth's own feelings of inadequacy for wifedom, an intense passion that led to their secret engagement and subsequent elopement to Italy in September 1846.

Her father, Edward Barrett Moulton Barrett, with his sister, Sir Thomas Lawrence's famous 'Pinkie' and whose real name was Sarah, had come to England from Jamaica, Sarah dying in 1795, very soon after her famous portrait was painted, from tuberculosis. With that slave wealth her father built Hope End in 1810, near Malvern, on the Welsh border, which he modeled on a Turkish seraglio (Turks also owned slaves) and which Elizabeth described as 'crowded with minarets and domes, crowned with metal spires and crescents'. He also stocked its library with books and engaged for his oldest son, also an Edward Barrett Moulton Barrett, a tutor from Ireland, Daniel McSwiney. He encouraged his first-born child, Elizabeth, to share in her brothers' lessons and to explore the library. But he let her know that only the first-born son would inherit the slave wealth, not the daughters, and he even named the last-born sons of his twelve children, Septimius and Octavius, to indicate their place in the succession. The oldest boy was known as `Bro'. The older sister competed with her younger brother in Latin and Greek, on her own studying French, Italian and Hebrew. She adored Byron and Greek and wrote
