Answer:
Norman Conquest in the year 1066
Explanation:
The Norman Conquest of Anglo-Saxon England in the year 1066 was the event which completely changed the course of Anglo-Saxon culture, language and arts. Normans were originally Vikings or Norsemen who had settled in present day northern France (Normandy). After the death of Anglo-Saxon King Edward the Confessor, William the the Conqueror (Duke of Normandy) proclaimed himself the rightful heir of the throne, conquered Anglo-Saxon England and was crowned the King on 25th December 1066.
This conquest had many effects on all aspects of Anglo-Saxon culture, history, language, literature, arts, law, etc. It linked England directly with France and continental Europe which before the conquest was more closely linked with Scandinavia. Anglo-Saxon or Old English as an official language of court, law, literature, was replaced by Anglo-Norman. It was only in 13th century that English (now called Middle English) started to challenge Anglo-Norman. But now it was completely changed from Old English (Anglo-Saxon).

To what Arthur are we referring?
In Browning's poem, "My Last Duchess," the Duke was married to his lovely wife, the Duchess, whose painting he has on the wall of his castle and is showing it to a visitor. As we read the poem, we find out that the Duchess liked to flirt a lot with other men which is why the Duke had her killed. I'm not sure who Browning seems to sympathize with - I guess <u>the Duchess</u>, given that she was murdered. The Duke is not the one who should be sympathized with.
