Lord Byron
Author: Kelly Mass
Publisher: Efalon Acies
ISBN:
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 35
Book Description
George Gordon Byron, the 6th Lord Byron, graced the literary landscape as an eminent English poet and esteemed peer, bearing the title of Baron Byron. Within the realm of Romanticism, he stands as a towering figure, often hailed as one of England's preeminent poetic voices. His influence persists, resonating through the annals of literary history. Notably, the enduring allure of his narrative epics, such as "Don Juan" and "Childe Harold's Pilgrimage," has etched Byron's name in the collective consciousness. Moreover, his shorter compositions, including the evocative "Hebrew Melodies," found resonance and popularity among avid readers. A wanderer of the European landscapes, Byron's sojourns led him across the picturesque vistas of Italy, where he immersed himself in the cultural tapestry of Venice, Ravenna, and Pisa. Notably, his seven-year sojourn in Italy deepened his friendship with the acclaimed poet Percy Bysshe Shelley. This period of intellectual exchange and camaraderie added layers to Byron's creative journey. The latter part of Byron's life unfolded against the backdrop of the Greek Conflict of Independence, where he assumed a gallant role, commanding campaigns against the Ottoman Empire. His valor and commitment to the Greek cause endeared him to the Greek populace, elevating his legacy in their eyes. The final chapter of Byron's life was marked by his demise from a fever following the arduous First and Second Siege of Missolonghi in 1824, leaving an indelible mark on the pages of history at the tender age of 36.

Languages : en
Pages : 549
Book Description
The Historical Dictionary of Romanticism in Literature provides a large overview of the Romantic Movement that seemed at the time to have swept across Europe from Russia to Germany and France, to Britain, and across the Atlantic to the United States.

From the early stirrings in Germany, to the last decade of the eighteenth century in England with the political radicals and the Lake Poets, to the Transcendental Club in Massachusetts, the leaders of the age acknowledged their new Romantic attitudes. This volume takes a close and comprehensive look at romanticism in literature through a chronology, an introductory essay, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 800 cross-referenced entries on the writers and the poems, novels, short stories and essays, plays, and other works they produced; the leading trends, techniques, journals, and literary circles and the spirit of the times are also covered. This book is an excellent access point for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more romanticism in literature.
