Byron created in his works: Lara, The Corsair, Manfred and even Don Juan. I don’t want to seem pedantic, but …you know…it’s my job!įor Byronic hero we intend the literary type G.G. A literary masterpiece has its own independent life, independent from the life of its author.” Byron, the man is not to be confused with his heroes nor with the poet who lives in his beautiful lines. They are not pedofiles nor incestuous creatures but they are Byronic heroes. You can recognize the same type in Charlotte Bronte’s Mr Rochester or Emily Bronte’s Heathcliffs. This is what Byronic hero means in literary criticism. His literary hero is restless, moody, rebellious, wild in manners but of noble birth, haunted by a secret from his past, loved by women and envied by men. Maria described the figure as thus: “ For Byronic hero we intend the literary type G.G. On another note, Byron inspired for us writers the BYRONIC FIGURE. SHE walks in beauty, like the nightOf cloudless climes and starry skies And all that’s best of dark and brightMeet in her aspect and her eyes:Thus mellow’d to that tender lightWhich heaven to gaudy day denies.

The movie was very entertaining! Don’t let the movie’s poster frighten you I was at first put off by it. I think my dislike for Rhys as Byron is due to my having already watched BYRON (2003) in which Jonny Lee Miller played the role of Lord Byron.
GEORGE GORDEN BYRON: Mad, Bad, and Dangerous to Know I could NOT enjoy this period movie to the fullest because of Matthew Rhys who played Lord Byron, a close friend of Brummells (or so it seems to be, according to the movie).
