    Dramatic Monologue A Monologue is loosely a literary piece which has only a single speaker. Yet, it is different from the soliloquy popularised in drama. The soliloquy is the voicing out aloud of a character's thoughts. On the other hand, the 'Dramatic Monologue' has implied listener/s. The speaker directly addresses the listener/s, asks them questions, instructs them etc. Furthermore, the speaker also makes the reader aware of the listener/s' response. For e.g. in Robert Browning's "My Last Duchess", the speaker is the Duke of Ferrara and the listener is a messenger from the Count of Tyrol. The listener is looking at a covered painting and wondering about it. The Duke allows the messenger to see that it is a portrait of his last Duchess. He tells the messenger that he should consider himself lucky that he got a chance to see the Duchess's portrait.
    The reason this kind of poetry is called a 'Dramatic Monologue' is a subject of much debate. Yet, the popular notion is that it takes place at a time in the speaker's life that will bring about a 'dramatic' change. Hence it is called a 'Dramatic Monologue'. For example, "The Patriot" by Robert Browning, has a speaker who is being taken to the gallous. Like Robert Browning, his Victorian fellow poets, Lord Alfred Tennyson and Mathew Arnold too were masters of the Dramatic Monologue. Tennyson is famous for his "Ulysses "and "Tithonus" whereas Mathew Arnold has given the unforgettable "Dover Beach";

    Four main features of a Dramatic Monologue:
    1. Only one speaker all throughout the poem.
    2. The statements made by the speaker makes it clear that there are people he/she is talking to.
    3. "Dramatic" implies a performance.
    4. The speaker reacts to the listener's statements and his/her own statements provide with an idea about the listeners.
