In 1860 Robert Browning discovered a book in a secondhand book stall in Florence, documenting a Roman murder trial in 1698. Around this information, he weaves a long narrative poem about Count Guido, the accused; Pompilia, his wife and murder victim; and Pietro and Violante Comparini, the parents of Pampilia and also victims of the murderous Guido. The poem describes events from different points of view, varying the guilt or innocent of the characters.

Volume II contains Stafford, a play seldom reprinted, and Sordello, a poem commonly, but mistakenly, neglected as "unintelligible." The book looks at Browning's correspondence with Emily Hickey, the first editor of Strafford, and important copies of Sordello that help to shed light on Browning's attempts to revise the poem. Also included are such of the juvenilia that survive.
