Trade Review“Of the three most useful editions of Browning’s poetry, the present set (begun in 1969) is the only one to include all of Browning’s poetry, plays, and prose…. The present volume (
Volume XVII) marks the end of an important scholarly project. A must for researchers interested in Browning and in the history of textual theory and criticism.” * Choice *
“The publication of this volume is in part a matter of heroic persistence…. Professor Dooley is an expert on Victorian print culture, and both he and Ashby Bland Crowder have edited other volumes in the series; as might be expected, the Ohio/Baylor edition is grounded in solid, meticulous textual scholarship.” * Times LIterary Supplement *
“The editorial policy of the Ohio edition has always been completeness, with the recording of all variants, changes, and corrections made by the poet himself, and these volumes continue that aim with admirable care and painstaking attention to detail.” * Journal of Browning Studies *
“The Ohio [Browning] is everything a reader could wish.” * English *
“The Ohio edition offers a virtual rare bookroom full of texts for any Browning poems where the determined critic can trace the author’s changing intentions and craft.” * Victorian Poetry *
