Résumé

Robert Browning's "My Last Duchess" serves as a quintessential example of dramatic monologue, encapsulating the poet's mastery of characterization and psychological depth. Set in Renaissance Italy, this chilling narrative unfolds through the voice of a Duke as he unveils a portrait of his deceased wife. The interplay of power, jealousy, and the male gaze is deftly crafted, with Browning's intricate use of enjambment and vivid imagery creating a haunting yet compelling portrait of a man who equates affection with possession.
The poem not only engages with historical context but also probes the darker aspects of human nature, encapsulating the tension between art and human emotion amidst an elite social backdrop. Browning, an influential figure of the Victorian era, drew upon his fascination with the dramatic, the psychological, and the moral complexities of individuals. His experiences in Italy and his deep interest in character-driven narratives significantly influenced "My Last Duchess." Drawing from historical accounts and Renaissance art, Browning skillfully channels the voice of the Duke, reflecting the era's themes of power dynamics and emotional manipulation.
This masterpiece is highly recommended for those interested in poetic narrative and character exploration. Students of literature, poetry enthusiasts, and anyone intrigued by the intricate dance of love, power, and tragedy will find Browning's work both intellectually stimulating and emotionally resonant.
