The poet takes on the role of this character and speaks as them. All dramatic monologues ar written in the first person. The effect of this is to make the poem more(prenominal) personal.Robert Browning wrote his monologues in the nineteenth Century. My utmost Duchess was set in 14th Century in Italy in a patriarchal society. Porphyrias fan was set in 19th Century in England and lastly The Laboratory was set in eighteenth Century in France. Robert Brownings poems were popular because in the Victorians times it was a patriarchal society and the people who lived in the Victorian times were rattling strict and excessively had a restricted life. at that placefore reading this in those times would have been especi all toldy strange and unusual to read closely psychotic people cleanup spot their loved one(a)s.Read thisRespiratory ActivityThe similarities between the characteristics of the bank clerks in the 3 poems. The first affinity is that the triad poems have disturbed narrators who treat their raw siennas as a possession. In Porphyrias devotee we hold up this when he tells usGive herself to methis tells us that he precisely wants her to himself and no one else whereas in My exist Duchess we know this when he tells ussince none marks by the curtain I have drawn for you however Ithis tells us that he is possessive even after her finale but in The Laboratory the narrator tells us that she wants to poison two females but besides wants the king to suffer by sayingHe is veritable to remember her dying facethis tells us that even though she doesnt w ant him curtly she wants him to suffer as much as the two female who will be poisoned.In addition another similarity is that all three poems the three narrators dont have any sense of guilt for what they have done. They alike gestate they have gotten away with the murder and that they didnt do anything wrong or need to regret for anything. In Porphyrias Lover he tells usand yet God has not express a word.This tells us that he thinks that he hasnt done anything wrong because he has not been punished by God yet. In My Last Duchess he tells usWillt please you rise? Well meet the company below.This shows us that hes got no emotions, hes controlling and has a prevalent tone and relaxed ab away what he has done. In The Laboratory she doesnt observe any guilt for what she is doing and for what she is just about to do, we know this byAnd her depreciator and her arms and her hands, should drop deadthis shows us that this is the way she wants her death to aroma like she says this in a childish way and also like a child getting really excited.Another similarity is that the narrator in My Last Duchess and Porphyrias Lover dont have any sense of guilt for what they have done. They also think they have gotten away with the murder and that they didnt do anything wrong or need to regret for anything. In Porphyrias Lover he tells usand yet God has not verbalize a word.This tells us that he thinks that he hasnt done anything wrong because he has not been punished by God yet. In My Last Duchess he tells usWillt please you rise? Well meet the company below.This shows us that hes got no emotions, hes controlling and has a normal tone and relaxed about what he has done.Lastly, another similarity is that all narrators choose not to carry with their fans and they never let them know what is wrong. In My Last Duchess the Duke tells usI choose never to stoopthis tells us that he will never get down and communicate with the Duchess. In Porphyrias Lover the lover tells usWhe n no voice repliedthis tells us that he has the power and that he didnt want to answer her, this also tells us that he wants to have the power so that she has to please him.There argon also differences between the characteristics of the narrators in the three poems. The first difference is that the victims were all murdered in different ways. In My Last Duchess the duke does not commit the crime himself but give a atrophied command and the murder is committed, we chiffonier hold in this when the duke saysI gave commandsthis tells us that he gave the command and the order was carried out without discussing about it. In Porphyrias Lover the killer murders the lover using the victim own hair and tells us that the victim was in no pain, we tush debate this when he tell usAnd strangled her. No pain felt she. I am quite sure she felt no painthis tells us that he strangled her and that she felt no pain, he also reassures the readers that the victim felt no pain. In The Laboratory the victims are killed using the poison that was made in front of her at the apothecary, we can see this when she saysSure to taste sweet, is that poison too?this tells us that she thinks that revenge tastes sweet.Another difference is that the woman in Porphyrias Lover is more sexually active and makes the first move, we can see this when the narrator tells usShe put my arm around her waist, And made her smooth white shoulder barethis tells us that she appears seductive and shes awake of her power. Where as in My Last Duchess the Duchess was much more modest and faithful, we can see this when the Duke tells usShe had a heart-how shall I say?this tells us that the Duchess was loyal to the Duke and did not always appear sexually active towards him or others.Another difference is that in all two of the poems Porphyrias Lover and The Laboratory they both have a basis for jealousy were as in My Last Duchess he does not have a reason to be jealous. In Porphyrias Lover the lover had a reaso n to be jealous because she had another man, we know this byone so pale for love of herthis tells us that she had another lover whilst she was with this lover and also in The Laboratory the narrator tells us that the king has another lover, we know this when she saysHe is with herthis tells us that the king was with another lover at the same time as he was with the narrator whereas in My Last Duchess there is no reason for the Duke to murder his wife as she is not being unfaithful to him but just being friendly and also appreciate for the presents she gets from others, we know this byThe bough of cherries some officious adopt bust in the orchard for her . Or blush at leastthis tells us that she would blush from a present given to her from anyone she did so because she wanted to be kind and friendly.In this poem there are different themes for each of the psychotic killers to murder. In the first poem the motive for murdering his wife in My Last Duchess is that the Duke only kills his wife because she gives innocent smiles when shes being offered a present but this is only because she has good address and wanted to be kind and friendly, we can see this byThe bough of cherries some officious fool broke in the orchard for her .. Or blush at leastthis tells us that the Duchess got murdered because of a blameless smile given to the person offering her a small gift of cherries whereas in Porphyrias Lover the narrator has a motive because his lover has another man, we can see this when he tell usone so pale for love of herthis tells us that the lover even though she has the killer as a lover she still had another lover but we do not know if she loved the lover as much as she loved the killer. In The Laboratory the narrator also has a motive which is that the king had another lover whilst he had the narrator, we can see this byHe is with her and they know that I knowthis tells us that the king has another lover and they both know that the killer knows but arent rea lly being bothered about her knowing.In all three poems the narrators dont feel guilty about the crimes they committed. We can see this in the poem Porphyrias Lover he tells usand yet God has not said a word.This tells us that he thinks that he hasnt done anything wrong because he has not been punished by God yet. In My Last Duchess he tells usWillt please you rise? Well meet the company below.This shows us that hes got no emotions, hes controlling and has a normal tone and relaxed about what he has done. In The Laboratory she doesnt feel any guilt for what she is doing and for what she is just about to do, we know this byAnd her breast and her arms and her hands, should drop deadthis shows us that this is the way she wants her death to look like she says this in a childish way and also like a child getting really excited.The speaker which is most grand is Porphyrias Lover because in this poem he describes the way he murder the victims. The way the victims murder is described is ho rrifying as he describes it in a harsh way. We can see this byIn one gigantic yellow string I wound three times her little throat around, and strangled herthis is a very harsh way to describe the death as the reader can picture the death in their minds.I feel that each of the narrators in the three poems is psychotic as their motives for killing the lovers is very poor. In Porphyrias Lover I feel that the narrator is very psychotic as he only wanted the lover for him and killed her just so she can belong to him only and cannot find someone else, we can see this when he saysIn one long yellow string I wound three times her little throat around, and strangled her.In My Last Duchess I feel that the narrator is also psychotic as he killed his wife because of an innocent smile this is very disturbing we can see this when he saysI gave commands and all smiles stopped together.Lastly, in The Laboratory I feel that the narrator is psychotic because of the way the death of the two women are described and how she wants their death to be, we can see this when she saysAnd her breast and her arms and her hands, should drop deadIn conclusion I think that Browning used dramatic monologues to explore these three characters because this is the poem in which the poet takes on the role of the narrator and speaks of them. I dont think that the poem would have been powerful in third person because using first person makes the poem more personal and it makes the reader think that the poem is talking to the reader himself. I think that the most shocking poem would have been Porphyrias Lover because in this poem the narrator describes harshly about the death of the lover and how he killed the lover with her hair and used this as a weapon and also I feel it is quite shocking when he tries to reassure the reader that the victim did not feel any pain.
