Byron was a key literary figure at the forefront of an artistic
movement known as Romanticism, which originated towards the end of
the eighteenth century; a movement which for English literature
meant the innovative re-shaping of boundaries in terms of style,
theme and content. Originally published in 1924, the centenary of
Byron's death, this book presents the historic text of the
Cambridge Rede Lecture, which was delivered by Anglican priest and
scholar Herbert Hensley Henson. In this lecture, Henson explores
how Byron's personality and work are reflective of each other,
compares his work to his contemporaries and celebrates his artistic
triumphs and colossal contribution to literature. Capturing and
illuminating the 'alluring interest of the man, the range of his
appeal, and the versatility of his genius', this landmark lecture
will be of significant value to anyone with an interest in the
works of Byron, English literature and the Romantic movement.
Herbert Hensley Henson (1863-1947) held the position of Bishop of
Durham between 1920 and 1939. He was also well known for his
forthright opinions on a variety of issues, including the Dreyfus
affair. In this volume, which was originally published in 1939 as
part of the English Institutions series, Henson provides a
comprehensive guide to the Church of England. The first chapter
gives a historical introduction, then subsequent chapters deal with
the various institutions which make up the Church and its
relationship with other branches of Christianity. A detailed index
and numerous illustrative figures are also included. This book will
be of value to anyone with an interest in the Anglican tradition
and ecclesiastical history.
