Conclusion.
Dramatic monologue is the only form in which Browning's ideas on marital abuse and religious hypocrisy can be demonstrated; other forms are ineffective. Browning's ability to establish a narrator and a silent auditor allows him to symbolically hang the narrators. They are not permitted to disclose anything they say to the auditor to any other audience members. The auditor is unable to judge and does not judge. The audience is given that right and is free to infer what the auditor's silence might be about on their own. Just as the audience has been divided from the auditor, Browning has distanced himself from his narrative. If not the first to "inaugurate [the first] to develop this poetry style," Robert Browning is frequently regarded as the master of the dramatic monologue form. Especially poetry where the speaker intimidates his listener into silence (Lennartz 418). The speakers in Browning's works frequently use threats and aggression. They typically hold a position of superiority, whether socially or intellectually; as a result, the auditor is required to listen quietly, and the reader is required to invent the world. This satisfies all three of Everett's criteria for dramatic monologues. A certain family resemblance may be found among Browning's "company of ruined questers, flawed poets, self-sabotaged artists, failed loves, inspired fanatics, charlatans, monomaniacs, and self-deceiving confidence men, and they overwhelm the other categories among his creations at last" (Trilling and Bloom 493-494). This essay will concentrate on a specific subset of these men, namely those who aid the reader in understanding domestic violence that ends in murder, as in "My Last Duchess" and "Porphyria's Lover," and those who aid the reader in understanding religious hypocrisy, as in "The Bishop Orders his Tomb at St. Praxis" and "Bishop Blougram's Apology." Robert Browning and the Lure of the Violent Lyric Voice: Domestic Violence and the Dramatic Monologue, by Melissa Valiska Gregory, Regardless of social standing or economic standing, domestic violence was common in Victorian families. However, other literature, such as novels, had episodes of sexual violence that were either brief and understated or deliberately avoided discussing the causes and ramifications of the violence (492-493). However, Browning also featured "acute portrayals of sexual tension within the domestic sphere—from the crude physical violence of Porphyria's lover to the precisely controlled aesthetic and sexual dominance of Duke Ferrara" (Gregory 493).
