Byron's life and work have equally fascinated readers around the world for two hundred years, but it is the complex interaction between his art and his politics, beliefs and sexuality that has attracted so many modern critics and students. In three sections devoted to the historical, textual and literary contexts of Byron's life and times, these essays by eminent Byron scholars provide a compelling picture of the diversity of Byron's writings. This Companion provides an invaluable resource for students and scholars, including a chronology and a guide to further reading.
"Specially commissioned essays by leading scholars discuss Byron's work in several fascinating contexts: literary history, Byron's life and travels, publishing, politics, and his reception across Europe. Unique in its combination of breadth of coverage and detailed analysis of individual works, this Companion will be indispensable to students and teachers alike."
"Even during his lifetime, Byron's life excited as much interest as his work.
