After studying 'My Last Duchess' today I thought that a bit of background information would help you to understand the poem in more depth. This is a PowerPoint about Robert Browning and the people it is based on (Lucrezia and Alfonso, Duke of Ferrara).
I've also attached a copy of a newspaper article I wrote to introduce the poem to another class. A quick read of this should help you to consolidate your knowledge of the poem's events.
