{"product_id":"9781107181465","title":"Byron in Context (Literature in Context)","description":"\u003cp\u003eGeorge Gordon, the sixth Lord Byron (1788–1824), was one of the most celebrated poets of the Romantic period, as well as a peer, politician and global celebrity, famed not only for his verse, but for his controversial lifestyle and involvement in the Greek War of Independence. In thirty-seven concise, accessible essays, by leading international scholars, this volume explores the social and intertextual relationships that informed Byron's writing; the geopolitical contexts in which he travelled, lived and worked; the cultural and philosophical movements that influenced changing outlooks on religion, science, modern society and sexuality; the dramatic landscape of war, conflict and upheaval that shaped Napoleonic and post-Napoleonic Europe and Regency Britain; and the diverse cultures of reception that mark the ongoing Byron phenomenon as a living ecology in the twenty-first century. This volume illuminates how we might think of Byron in context, but also as a context in his own right.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48713145581803,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":236.22,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/ja\/products\/9781107181465","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
