Robert Browning is a Victorian writer during the time of Jack the Ripper. Jack the Ripper inspires Browning’s Realistic art. In “Porphyria’s Lover”‚ Browning’s style incorporates dramatic monologue along with Gothic influences to ridicule the concept of Romanticism. Browning writes the poem as a dramatic monologue to emphasize the uneasy feeling of the situation. The poem opens with the setting of a storm; a storm in which “the rain set…the sullen wind was…awake‚ [which] tore elm-tops for spite.”
