In "My Last Duchess," Robert Browning masterfully employs the dramatic monologue form to explore themes of power, jealousy, and the objectification of women. Set against the backdrop of the Italian Renaissance, the poem unravels the sinister motivations of a Duke, who reveals the portrait of his deceased wife while recounting her perceived flaws. Browning's use of enjambment and caustic irony amplifies the Duke's arrogance and the chilling nature of his possessive love, inviting readers to witness the dark undercurrents of human emotion and social status. Robert Browning, a prominent figure in Victorian poetry, was deeply influenced by his fascination with psychological complexity and historical context. His personal experiences and interest in dramatic narratives fueled his exploration of flawed characters like the Duke, reflecting the social mores and gender dynamics of his time.
