Volume IV of this edition of Byron's poetical works covers the
period from the middle of 1816, when Byron left England, to the end
of 1820. During this first phase of his exile years he wrote some
of his most important and innovative work, including Manfred,
Beppo, Mazeppa, and the Morgante Maggiore. These were the works,
and this was the period, in which Byron moved toward the project
that was to become his masterwork, Don Juan. Seventy-one poems are
included in this volume, of which ten are collected in complete
form for the first time. In addition, a large number of the poems
have heretofore been printed in corrupted or non-authoritative
texts, many of them among Byron's most well-known works such as
Manfred and "To the Po". The texts are based on a return to, and a
systematic analysis of, all the early textual documents, including
all known manuscripts, proofs, and early editions. Copious notes
and commentaries supplement the editorial apparatus, so that the
entire context of these works--textual, biographical, social,
historical--is elucidated as it has never been in any previous
edition.
