关于罗伯特布朗宁的问题

By 2024015217崔悦 5天前 7次浏览

Question: How does the dramatic monologue form in Robert Browning’s "My Last Duchess" contribute to the characterization of the Duke and the exploration of themes such as power, jealousy, and moral corruption?

    2. Exploration of Central Themes

    - Power: The monologue’s one-sided structure mirrors the Duke’s unchecked power—he dominates the conversation (and the Duchess’s life/death), with no counterpoint to challenge his tyranny, embodying the abuse of aristocratic power.

    - Jealousy: His rambling complaints about the Duchess’s “too easily impressed” nature are a stream of jealous grievances, making jealousy the driving force behind his violent actions and central to the poem’s critique of toxic possessiveness.

    - Moral corruption: The Duke’s casual admission of murder, paired with his focus on trivialities (e.g., the Frà Pandolf portrait) immediately after, shows moral decay rooted in aristocratic entitlement—he views human life as disposable to preserve his pride.
