Contemporary Studies on Lord Byron
Brewer, William D. , editor

Reviews

“Although the essays draw on divergent theoretical and critical paradigms, they cohere around the common task of shedding new light on a major writer. Indeed, what makes this volume especially exciting is its treatment of much-neglected Byron poems and its exploration of the Byron legacy in the 20th century.” – Eric Daffron
