The Brownings fled to Italy, and there they spent the rest of their days (at least Elizabeth did). The Browning romance was celebrated in Rudolf Besier's The Barretts of Wimpole Street .

ESTC Opened Up to New Users The English Short Title Catalogue Now Available Through Eureka RLIN , the Research Libraries Information Network. The move opens up the file to all kinds of users via a variety of different access options including Eureka , RLG's easy-to-use search service, with its superior record display and online help features. ESTC is an invaluable tool for myriad fields of study, well beyond the implications of "English" in its title. It provides online descriptions of items printed in any language in the British Isles, any British dependency, and the United States prior to 1801, as well as items printed wholly or partly in any British language elsewhere in the world during this period. (Originally, ESTC stood for the "Eighteenth-century Short Title Catalogue"; the file was expanded to cover earlier materials in 1994, renamed, and today contains some 85,000 bibliographic records for works published before 1701, the earliest dating to 1473.) The file is continually updated and enhanced. In addition to scholars in traditional fields, students of the history of ideologies, of popular movements and social trends, and of the book itself, can be expected to make ESTC a major resource. Thus far used by a relatively small, if devoted, user clientele, ESTC will now be available to a much broader public. Researchers will be able to find pertinent entries across all of the RLIN bibliographic files with a single search. And, if their institution has a Z39.50 client, they will be able to access ESTC through RLG's

If by traduction came thy mind, Our wonder is the less, to find A soul so charming from a stock so good; So wert thou born into the tuneful strain

Comments Today, on September 10th, 2005, the site contains 150 poets , 8361 poems and 1778 comments Biography of John Dryden John Dryden (1631 - 1700) John Dryden (August 19, 1631 - May 12, 1700) was an influential British poet, literary critic, and playwright. He was born in a village rectory near Oundle in Northamptonshire and educated at Westminster School and Trinity College, Cambridge. He was a professional writer throughout his life. His early plays, often heroic tragedy, met with highly variable success but served to promote his name and his Royalist sentiments. Arriving in London during the Protectorate, he attempted to capitalise on the Parliamentarian sympathies of his family, but failed to make much impact until the Restoration of King Charles II. His poem, Astrea Redux , in honour of this event, made him a name. Dryden turned to the stage for a living, and soon became the most successful dramatist of the decade following the Restoration. He wrote in both of the dominant genres of the period: heroic verse drama and comedy of manners. He wrote for money, and claimed that the only one of his plays he cared for was All For Love The Indian Emperor is a wholly fictitious account of the conquest of Mexico by the Spaniards.

JOHN DRYDEN ALEXANDER'S FEAST; OR. THE POWER OF MUSIC This poem provides an example of a dithyramb. A SONG IN HONOUR OF ST.CECILIA'S DAY: 1697 'T was at the royal feast, for Persia won Alexander the Great conquered Persia in 331 B.C. By Philip's warlike son: Aloft in awful state The godlike hero sate On his imperial throne. His valiant peers were placed around; Their brows with roses and with myrtles bound: (So should desert in arms be crowned.) The lovely Thais, by his side, Sate like a blooming Eastern bride, In flower of youth and beauty's pride. Happy, happy, happy pair! None but the brave, None but the brave, None but the brave deserves the fair. CHORUS Happy, happy, happy pair! None but the brave, None but the brave, None but the brave deserves the fair. Timotheus (tih-MOWTH-ee-us), a renowned musician Timotheus, placed on high Amid the tuneful quire, With flying fingers touched the lyre: Quire: An old spelling of "choir."
