Duncan — Intellectual Kinship

Duncan, Joseph E. “The Intellectual Kinship of John Donne and Robert Browning.” Studies in Philology 50 (1953): 81–100.

“Although many of Browning’s contemporaries and early critics noted his affinity with Donne, the resemblances in the work of the two poets were not investigated in any detail and usually have been neglected in more recent studies. Yet the intellectual kinship between the two poets was very close. There were important similarities—and also differences—in their philosophical ideas and aesthetic theories. Browning also apparently drew heavily upon his very thorough knowledge of Donne in his use of the dramatic monologue, casuistical logic, metaphor, and wit.”
