    C. Presentation of the Lesson:
    Authors Background:
     Robert Browning was an English
    poet and playwright born in
    Camberwell, London in 1812.  He
    was an intelligent child who was
    fluent in five languages by the age
    of fourteen. He was also passionate
    about poetry and was a talented
    musician, composing arrangements
    of several songs as well as writing
    poetry.
     Robert Browning published "My
    Last Duchess" in 1842 in a book of
    poems titled Dramatic Lyrics. As
    the title suggests, in these poems
    Browning experiments with form,
    combining some aspects of stage
    plays and some aspects of Romantic
    verse to create a new type of poetry
    for his own Victorian age. The
    Victorians are the poor unfortunates who come between the Romantics
    and the Modernists. In other words, authors in this period got
    sandwiched between two great movements that majorly influenced
    Western Culture, and so readers sometimes forget about the Victorian
    age writers.
