Lord Byron
by Graham, Peter W.
Peter W. Graham's Lord Byron situates this nineteenth-century author-icon and his literary achievements in various contexts. Beginning with a concise biography, Graham considers all Byron's major poems usefully grouped according to literary kind or genre. Separate chapters are devoted to Byron's accomplishments as lyricist, satirist, tale-teller, dramatist, and contriver of the loco-descriptive narratives Childe Harold and Don Juan, his profound and brilliantly outrageous masterpiece.
Balancing the historical and the critical, Graham draws on primary documents such as Byron's incomparable letters and journals as well as on classic assessments and the most recent textual and critical developments in Byron scholarship. Solidly grounding Byron's works in his own time and reaffirming their continued relevance today, Lord Byron will prove an invaluable resource to both general readers and specialists.
