If you study the history of English literature, you will find the names of Robert and Elizabeth Barrett Browning. They were one of the most romantic literary couples of the Victorian era. Elizabeth Barrett started to write poetry from about the age of six.In 1844, Elizabeth’s Poems brought her great success and also attracted the admiration of poet Robert Browning. Browning fell in love with her poetry and then they entered into personal correspondence. The couple exchanged many letters. These letters obviously helped sow the seeds of love between the two. Elizabeth had been ill for many years. She stayed at home and almost never saw victors. Browning was sure about his love, so he found a way to visit her, and immediately convinced her to become his bride. However, their subsequent marriage was carried out in secret.It was because her father was dominant and selfish man .He would refuse to let his daughter go. The couple moved to Italy in 1846.
