George Gordon, sixth Baron Byron

After almost a year's separation, Byron and LCL had a meeting brokered by Lady Melbourne and Lady Bessborough with the idea of convincing Caroline that the affair was over.

Paul Douglass points out that Ada Reis is a work of scholarship as well as of imagination; before writing the text, LCL had digested many recent works of travel and exploration, including those by...

In one more belated public linking of herself with Byron , LCL appeared at Almack's in London dressed as his fictional Don Juan and attended by devils.

William Lamb worried intensely about the probable reception of Ada Reis, particularly the scenes in hell, and he tried to enlist William Gifford of the Quarterly as an ally in pressuring Caroline to tone...

LCL met with Byron 's funeral cortege (by accident, she said) on its way from London to Newstead; she never really recovered from the breakdown brought on by this encounter.

This is a rollicking, fizzing, flighty, purposely excessive poem. It parodies yet also hitches a lift on Byron 's own whimsical style. Impersonating the male poet who lambasts Our maudlin, hey-down-derrified pathetic frees Lamb...

LCL died at Melbourne House in London; she left to Sydney Morgan her portrait of Byron and some of his letters.

The British Library Catalogue lists this work under Byron , not Lamb. She paid for its publication, and sent copies to friends and reviewing journals. Her aims here as she described them were at...

LCL read an advance copy of the early cantos of Byron 's Childe Harold, and wrote a poem expressing her wish to emulate him.

An odd spin-off from LCL 's desire to make herself into a professional writer was her project for a pocket diary or almanac. These ephemeral publications were repositories of useful information of many kinds as...

LCL anonymously published A New Canto to satirize Byron 's Don Juan (of which only two cantos were so far in print).

The programme considered contemporary political and social subjects through the lens of historical and classical literary texts by, for instance Shakespeare , Byron , Shaw , and Wilde . It was shown on Sunday evenings.

The volume opens with The Poet's Address, which excuses its disconnection from the original frame: Should you be good-naturedly disposed, you will not inquire minutely where the travellers were picked up by whom the...

This tale reached its fifth edition independently of the other Tales in 1823, when it appeared as a kind of trailer to John Murray 's projected edition of the whole series. Byron recognised Kruitzner as...

Byron praised the Canterbury Tales, but in 1913George Saintsbury asserted that Byron had done so either irresponsibly or impishly. They were, he said, not exactly bad, but also as far as possible from...
