Parleyings with Certain People of Importance in Their Day is a collection of dramatic monologues written by the renowned English poet, Robert Browning. The book consists of a series of conversations between the poet and various historical figures, including Dante, Michelangelo, Shakespeare, and George Washington. Through these dialogues, Browning explores the themes of art, politics, religion, and philosophy. The book is a reflection of Browning's own intellectual and artistic pursuits, as well as his interest in the lives and works of these influential figures of the past. The language of the book is rich, complex, and full of literary allusions, making it a challenging but rewarding read for lovers of poetry and philosophy.To Wit: Bernard De Mandeville, Daniel Bartoli, Christopher Smart, George Bubb Dodington, Francis Furini, Gerard De Lairesse, And Charles Avison. Introduced By A Dialogue Between Apollo And The Fates; Concluded By Another Between John Fust And His Friends.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
