Annotation:
George Gordon Byron, Lord Byron is an English romantic poet and peer who captured the imagination of the whole of Europe with his "gloomy selfishness". Byron's poems are more autobiographical than the writings of other English romantics. He felt more keenly than many the hopeless discrepancy between romantic ideals and reality. The realization of this discrepancy did not always plunge him into melancholy and despondency; in his latest works, the removal of masks from people and phenomena causes nothing but an ironic smile. This collection contains "Childe Harold" (Canto IV), "The Prisoner of Chillon" and other selected works by Lord Byron, grouped in chronological order.
