Byron: A Life in Ten Letters
A Byron biography like no other - told through ten moving and resonant letters - timed for the bicentennial of his death.

Stauffer explores the changing place of anger in the literature and culture of the period, as English men and women rethought their relationship to the aggressive passions in the wake of the French Revolution. Drawing on diverse fields and discourses such as aesthetics, politics, medicine and the law and tracing the classical legacy the Romantics inherited, Stauffer charts the period's struggle to define the relationship of anger to justice and the creative self.

Alongside these two major works, wider representation is given to Byro...
