Lord Byron’s poetry took Europe by storm in the early 19th century, and the poems which helped establish him are represented here by a selection of the early lyrics, including still popular pieces such as She walks in beauty and We’ll go no more a-roving . However, Byron’s real talent was for comedy, being one of the greatest comic poets of the Romantic movement, and his comic verse is represented by Beppo , A Vision of Judgement and selections from his masterpiece Don Juan , which satirizes the very reputation for amorous adventures which helped to make Byron himself famous.
