What makes your Last Duchess Literary?

It is composed in a recognised literary form - The Dramatic Monologue.

The whole poem may be spoken or performed as if it were a play with the speaker cast as the Duke and the hearer ()or reader) cast as the envoy who has come to negotiate the Duke's suit for the hand in marriage of the new Duchess.

The literary device of the 'unreliable narrator' is used to ironic and telling effect: in describing his relationship with his deceased wife the Duke unwittingly exposes himself as arrogant, cruel, obsessive and jealous and as a man who sees a wife as an object to posess and control. He is obviously a totally inappropriate husband for the Count's 'fair daughter' and it is this realisation that causes the envoy to attempt rushing headlong from the room.

What songs have personification in them?

Personification (talking about a thing as if it were a person; treating an inanimate object as if it has personal characteristics) is often used in poems and songs. The hit song from 2010 by Flo Rida, "Club Can't Handle Me" is an example-- a club (night club, dance club) is a thing, an inanimate object, a room where people dance. But in the song, it is talked about as if it is a person, one that can't "handle" the singer, who is said to be such a great dancer and more popular than anyone else there. Another example is the 2011-12 hit by Adele, "Set Fire to the Rain," where the singer speaks of her own tears, but also speaks of the rain crying and screaming out the name of the person she has loved and lost.
