Opis

Excerpt from Poems Most poets endeavor to sink the individual in the universal; it is the special distinction of Mr. Browning that when he is most universal he is most individual. As a thinker he con ceives of humanity not as an aggregate, but as a collection of units. Most thinkers write and speak of man; Mr. Browning of men. With man as a species, with man as a society, he does not concern himself, but with individual man and man. Every man is for him an epitome of the universe, a center of creation. Life exists for each as completely and separately as if he were the only inhabitant of our planet. Here is it that Mr. Browning parts company most decisively with all other poets who concern themselves exclusively with life - dramatic poets, as we call them; so that it seems almost necessary to invent some new term to define precisely his spe cial attitude. And hence it is that in his drama thought plays comparatively so large, and action comparatively so small, a part; hence, that action is valued only in so far as it reveals thought or motive, not for its own sake, as the crown and żower of these. For his endeavor is not to set men in action for the pleasure of seeing them move; but to see and Show, in their action and inaction alike, the real impulses of their being: to see how each soul conceives of itself.
