Browning'S Paracelsus : Being The Text Of Browning'S Poem...
An uncompromising meditation from one of the nineteenth centurys fiercest imaginations, Brownings Paracelsus confronts the hunger for knowledge, the temptation of mastery and the spiritual cost of ambition.

Readers of dramatic monologue anthologies will recognise Brownings restless voice enthusiasts of classic English literature will find its moral urgency and rhetorical daring compelling. The poems engagement with alchemy and mysticism and its probing of philosophical poetry themes make it a natural point of interest for those attracted to existential exploration poems, while its dense rhetoric rewards close attention.
