Synopsis

Excerpt from Imaginary Conversations

Browning, a great dramatic poet. His Examination of William Shakspere for deer-stealing is marked by its individual power and solemn deliberate humour in the Peniameron Boccaccio and Petrarch discourse together in delightful Old-world fashion; Pericles and Aspasia is full of glimpses of Greek life mingled with Landorian wisdom. But it is in the Imaginary Conversations, elaborated during the thirty most mature years of his life, that Landor has given us most of himself. As was said many years ago, a well-edited selection of the Conversations would be one of the most beautiful books in the language - that is to say, in the world.
