Publisher's Synopsis
Few figures in English literature are as fascinating or controversial as Lord Byron. In this insightful biography, Cesare Cantù traces the arc of the poet's life and career, from his early years as an aristocrat and man of letters to his exile in Italy and his untimely death in Greece. Drawing on a wealth of archival material and literary analysis, Cantù offers a nuanced portrait of a complex and often misunderstood figure, illuminating his contributions to English literature and his enduring legacy in the Romantic movement. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in Byron, the Romantics, or English literature more broadly.
