Wikipedia

Lord Byron était un poète anglais tout aussi célèbre pour sa vie faite de scandales, d'exil et d'excès que pour sa poésie élégante et ciselée. Considéré par ses contemporains comme une figure sombre, séduisante et romantique, il a laissé en héritage le ténébreux héros byronien, qui continue de marquer le public moderne deux siècles plus tard.
