Answer 1

The correct answer to the question is A. Elizabeth Barrett Browning.

She was born in 1806 and suffered from a spinal cord injury and lung disease. Elizabeth Barrett Browning lived under the shadow of her controlling father until she met the prominent poet Robert Browning. They shared a mutual attraction that was so strong they eloped.

Her best-known book of poetry is Sonnets From the Portuguese, and her Aurora Leigh is celebrated for its feminist defense of women's intellectual independence. Elizabeth Barrett Browning passed away in 1861.
