Sinopsis

This book considers how Byron?s cosmopolitanism, mobility, and chameleon style influenced Byron?s identity in West and Eastern Europe. Transformed by French translations, Byron?s work was read by Thomas Moore, Ugo Foscolo, Lady Mosergan, Madame de Staël, Adam Mickiewicz and Alexander Pushkin. His ironic style in 'The Island' anticipated themes explored by Harlem Renaissance writers such as Countee Cullen and Russian poet Marina Tsvetaeva, while his death in Greece shaped how Adam Mickiewicz and Alexander Pushkin chose to live and end their lives.
