Re: Aba

Greatly love the way you put this question, especially, Del Satro not having had got "it", contrasted with Lucrezia's being indifferent - it matters, it does not matter et al. Your having giving it so much thought delights me dear Presta. This, from your ha ha  Master Aba , no, not really. Or, really?

Getting A, certainly, and always, you are yourself a fine writer, in a way that I cannot, Kabu dear.

Quite interesting on a deep level, I find this. My first thought, without regard to Browning, which, forgive me, is missing your point, but without which one cannot determine the fairness of the topic, is whether it was an arranged mariage between Del Sarto and Lucrezia. My guess is that it was. Browning did well with this one. Del Sarto may not have had "it," the fire in his soul, the personality, that indefinable something, with Lucrezia, but may have with someone else. Or not. He doubts himself on every level. So was he ever stable? Would it matter? And Lucrezia, does she not know she is just a face to him? Interesting if she does, interesting if she doesn't, interesting if she didn't care. It is Del Sarto who is the subject, and your depiction of him through Browning is eye-opening and thought provoking by involving Lucrezia. Well done, again, Master Aba.

Re:

'He justifies his life yet again' is probably what I would have wanted to say. You did, and that is really telling something.

Why didn't he send her away and start painting his pain. So long as there is breath there are possibilities.

Very well presented by you dear friend but I just get frustrated when someone blames everyone else...sure he blames himself in a way but then he justifies his life yet again.
