Robert Browning fue un poeta victoriano preeminente, célebre por su dominio del verso dramático, en particular del monólogo dramático. Su obra profundiza en la psique humana, explorando las complejidades del carácter a través de discursos poéticos introspectivos y a menudo extensos. El estilo distintivo de Browning se caracteriza por su rico vocabulario y sus intrincados patrones métricos, que no obstante sirven para amplificar la resonancia emocional de sus narrativas. Innovó la forma del monólogo dramático, utilizándola para revelar los pensamientos y motivaciones más íntimos de sus hablantes con notable agudeza psicológica.

Wznowienie cenionej biografii Justyniana I, cesarza bizantyńskiego i jego żony Teodory uzasadnia wyjątkowość tej książki, bowiem - jak wspomina Robert Browning w przedmowie - jest ona próbą odmalowania takiego obrazu wydarzeń, jaki zapewne rysował się samemu cesarzowi i jego zadziwiającej, obdarzonej niezwykłą urodą, inteligencją i temperamentem małżonce. Mimo iż cesarze rzymscy nie byli samowładnymi dyktatorami i tak w zakresie informacji, jak i wprowadzania w życie swych decyzji byli uzależnieni od osobistych doradców oraz machiny biurokratycznej, niewątpliwie Justynian i Teodora odcisnęli na epoce piętno swoich osobowości mocniej niż którykolwiek z ich poprzedników, poczynając od Augusta przed pięciu i pół wiekami.
