Described as 'Mad, bad and dangerous to know' by one of his lovers,
Lady Caroline Lamb, Lord Byron was the quintessential Romantic.
Flamboyant, charismatic and brilliant, he remains almost as
notorious for his life - as a political revolutionary, sexual
adventurer and traveller - as he does for his literary work. Yet he
produced some of the most daring and exuberant poetry of the
Romantic age, from 'To Caroline' and 'To Woman' to the satirical
English Bards and Scotch Reviewers, his exotic Eastern tales and
the colourful narrative of Childe Harold's Pilgrimage, the work
that made him famous overnight and gave birth to the idea of the
brooding Byronic hero.
