English poet Elizabeth Barrett Browning, is probably best known for her collection of poems, Sonnets from the Portuguese. By title alone, one might assume that these poems were either translated from Portuguese or a product of Portuguese inspiration. Instead, the title refers to the author herself. Robert Browning, Elizabeth’s husband, affectionately called her his "little Portuguese," on account of her dark complexion. Indeed, it was Robert, himself a successful poet, who secured his wife’s literary fame through this volume of verse. While the poems in Sonnets from the Portuguese were intended as a private gift for him, he simply could not keep their beauty to himself. The book was subsequently published in 1850. [br] Select the sentence within the paragraph that explains Barrett Browning’s inspiration for the title of her book of verse.
