unappreciated by passing on a Victorian name and she did not give the name any respect. I think that all the duchess’s actions made the Duke react by giving the command to “take care of her‚” meaning to get rid of her by death so he can remarry. 2. Ferrara is addressing the Court; the father of the daughter he now wants to marry.

In Robert Browning ’s "My Last Duchess‚" a portrait of the egocentric and power loving Duke of Ferrara is painted for us. Although the duke ’s monologue appears on the surface to be about his late wife‚ a close reading will show that the mention of his last duchess is merely a side note in his self-important speech.

“Poetry focusing on villainy and wrongdoing or even on foolish characters with dark minds‚ often produces engaging material for the reader or the listener”. Consider in what ways foolishness and villainy appears in your six selected poems and in what ways‚ if any‚ it may be of interest.
