Description
What is there of Browning in the leading anthologies for the teaching of college-level students? How much of Browning's life is given the student? How much of his poetry is presented? What helps are given the student in the way of annotation? What is the attitude of the anthologist? How wide is his scope? What is his purpose? Does the anthologist consider that a man may be separated from his work? Into what pigeonholes is Browning placed? These are the questions considered in this thesis.
