The text revisits her recognition during her lifetime, evaluates her qualities as a thoroughly trained and widely read scholar-poet, and highlights her freedom from religious, national, class, and sex prejudices. It contrasts later fame for the ‘Sonnets from the Portuguese’ with broader evidence from poems and Aurora Leigh, framing Hayter’s analysis as a corrective to her legend of invalidism and “ringlets.”",{"@graph":14,"@context":73},[15,34,56],{"@type":16,"itemListElement":17},"BreadcrumbList",[18,23,27,31],{"item":19,"name":20,"@type":21,"position":22},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",1,{"item":24,"name":25,"@type":21,"position":26},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":28,"name":29,"@type":21,"position":30},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/literature/","Literature",3,{"item":32,"name":10,"@type":21,"position":33},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/elizabeth-barrett-browning-alethea-hayter/415088/",4,{"url":32,"name":10,"@type":35,"image":36,"author":41,"headline":10,"publisher":44,"fileFormat":47,"inLanguage":8,"description":12,"dateModified":48,"datePublished":49,"encodingFormat":47,"isAccessibleForFree":50,"interactionStatistic":51},"DigitalDocument",{"url":37,"@type":38,"width":39,"height":40},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/elizabeth-barrett-browning-alethea-hayter/415088.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":42,"@type":43},"Kurz","Person",{"url":19,"name":45,"@type":46},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-30","2026-09-28",true,{"@type":52,"interactionType":53,"userInteractionCount":55},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":54},"ViewAction",10,{"@type":57,"mainEntity":58},"FAQPage",[59,65,69],{"name":60,"@type":61,"acceptedAnswer":62},"Why

Browning's achievement as a poet.WhenWordsworth died,her claims to succeed him as Poet Laureate wereseriously canvassed;and during her lifetime her work was considered torank higher than that of her husband.While no one would now claimgreat genius for her,in Miss Hayter's view 'there are qualities in herpoetry which still have power to move and interest us.Few poets havetrained themselves so thoroughly for their chosen profession;fewer havebeen so widely-read and so versed in scholarship.Mrs Browning'spoetry,moreover,reflects her own characteristicfreedom from religious,national,class or sex prejudices.Today it is for the ‘Sonnets from thePortuguese',those famous love poems to Browning,that Mrs Browningis principally but unjustly known;for she is a far greater poet than thesereveal.Many other poems better demonstrate her command of strikingand original imagery,her daring—and sometimes outrageous—prosodicexperiments,her very excellent mind;while Aurora Leigh undoubtedlycontains the finest passages she ever wrote.In this illuminating essayMis Hayter frees Plizabeth Barrett Browning once and for all from'her legend of invalidism and ringlets'.  \nAlethea
