Which poet is not considered an English Romantic poet?

John Keats, Percy Shelley, and William Wordsworth are all individuals who were considered English Romantic poets. Robert Browning (May 1812 - December 1889) was an English poet and playwright whose dramatic monologues put him high among the Victorian poets. His verse became noted for irony, characterization, dark humor, social commentary, historical settings, and challenging vocabulary and syntax. He remains best known for his 12-book long form blank poem "The Ring and the Book", the story of a Roman murder trial.

Browning was born in Camberwell, England. His mother was an accomplished pianist and a devout evangelical Christian. His father, who worked as a bank clerk, was an artist, scholar, antiquarian, and collector of books and pictures. So much of Browning's education came from his well-read father.

The early part of Browning’s creative life was spent in comparative obscurity. He later came to be regarded as one of the most important English poets of the Victorian period. His early critics saw his rhyme patterns as appropriate for light verse such as children’s poems, where emphasis was placed on entertainment.

During his life, he would be a prolific writer and his works shall include: "Pauline" (1833), "Paracelsus" (1835), "Sordello" (1840), "The Pied Piper of Hamelin" (1842), "Men and Women" (1855), and "Dramatis Personae" (1864). At the time of his death, he was seen as a sage and philosopher-poet who had fed into Victorian social and political discourse.
