Porphyria's Lover - Robert Browning

Created by

Porphyria's unnamed lover kills her. We hear him rationalize the deed but a comprehensive examination of the poem illustrates just how Browning communicated the psyche of the individual. By examining the rhyme, meter and imagery and the application of these elements in the monologue form, we can start to explore the mind of the person Browning has created. At the same time, we can begin to appreciate the sensibilities of the era and how they might have reacted when Browning wrote his piece. Fore

My Last Duchess - Robert Browning

The monologue form allows Browning to create a character of infinite menace and complexity as nothing is said directly - everything is implied.

This resource explores the rhyme, meter and form in a comprehensive manner showing how Browning communicated not just through what was said but how it was said; t
