- Title
"Dante-on-Steroids": "English Terza" and Elizabeth Barrett Browning's Casa Guidi Windows.
- Authors
Goldstein, Oliver
- Abstract
The article focuses on range of linguistic and metrico-rhythmic issues that arise for poets intending to write terza rima in English verse. It mentions about Elizabeth Barrett Browning's "Casa Guidi Windows", which is overlooked by George Saintsbury, who omits to consider the poem in "A History of English Prosody," by multiple Victorian reviewers, for one of whom the poem was an unmistakeable and complete failure.
