Porphyrias buffer, My Last Duchess and The Flea all have the antecedent of love in themPorphyrias Lover, My Last Duchess and The Flea all have the theme oflove in them. But they are not all the same theme of love for examplePorphyrias Lover is neurotic and seductive love whereas The Flea is much like sexual love. Robert cook writes both Porphyrias Loverand My Last Duchess and John Donne writes The Flea. I judgePorphyrias Lover and My Last Duchess are alike as Robert Browning usessimilar themes of love in them e.g. Obsessive and Possessive. TheFlea is a completely different poem altogether. It is more of asexual poem rather than obsessive scarce it could be argued that it isobsessive as well because the male is obsessed with having sex withthe lady.Porphyrias Lover is about a man obsessing over Porphyria, who isalready with someone else, Porphyria seduces him and tells him thatshe loves him- She install my arm about her waist, and made her smoothwhite shoulder bare and all her yellow hair displaced. Murmuring howshe loved me. Her lover then realises Porphyria loves him and hedebates what to do, he then thinks of something to do that will makePorphyria his forever, and all her hair in one yellow string I woundthree quantify her little throat around and strangled her. He killedPorphyria and is happy and confident about what he has done And thuswe sit together now, and all wickedness long we have not stirred, and yetGod has not said a word Porphyrias Lover is a Dramatic Monologue inwhich and obsessive lover kills his mistress. Robert Browning usespersonification an pathetic fallacy to set the mood of the lover, The sullen wind was soon awake, it tore the elm- tops down for spite,and d... ...to be killed because she smiled at othermen, Oh sir, she smiled, no doubt, wheneer I passed her, but whopassed without much the same smile? This grew I gave commands thenall smiles stopped together. This poem is like Porphyrias Lover because is contains possessive love and so does Porphyrias lover. I dont think it is like The Fleabecause it has no seductive love in it at all. I think this could bedown to the fact that Porphyrias Lover and My Last Duchess are bothwritten by Robert Browning and so they will be written in a certainstyle of writing. The Flea however is written by John Donne and isslightly different to both the other poemsI enjoyed studying these types of love verse line because I thought it wasinteresting how there are so many types of love. I think I have shownthat all the poems are related to to each one other in different ways.
