Excerpt from Childe Harold's Pilgrimage Canto Fourth: And the Prisoner of ChillonThese poems, and indeed all poems, should be taught as literature, and the primary aim should be literary ap preciation. The teacher is often confronted with the problem of getting pupils to see the essential difference between poetry and prose. This can best be done by good interpretative reading and by calling attention to the fact that poetry makes more of an emotional than an intellectual appeal, that it is largely imaginative and suggestive, and that it deals more with great truths than with facts.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Childe Harold's Pilgrimage was the poem which brought Lord Byron public recognition. He himself disliked the poem, because he felt it revealed too much of himself. In it a young man (called childe after the medieval term for a candidate for knighthood) travels to distant lands to relieve the boredom and weariness brought on by a life of dissipation. It is thought to be a comment on the post-Revolutionary and -Napoleonic generation, who were weary of war.

Excerpt from Childe Harold's Pilgrimage: Canto IBeholds the rainbow4 of her future years, Before whose heavenly hues all sorrow disappears.Young Peri5 of the West -'tis well for me My years already doubly number thine My loveless eye unmoved may gaze on thee, And safely view thy ripening beauties shine Happy, I ne'er shall see them in decline; Happier, that while all younger hearts shall bleed, Mine shall escape the doom thine eyes assign To those whose admiration shall succeed, But mixed with pangs to Love's even loveliest hours decreed.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

George Gordon Byron, the 6th Baron Byron FRS (22 January 1788 - 19 April 1824), known simply as Lord Byron, was an English poet, peer, and politician who became a revolutionary in the Greek War of Independence, and is considered one of the leading figures of the Romantic movement. He is regarded as one of the greatest English poets and remains widely read and influential. Among his best-known works are the lengthy narrative poems Don Juan and Childe Harold's Pilgrimage; many of his shorter lyrics in Hebrew Melodies also became popular.He travelled extensively across Europe, especially in Italy, where he lived for seven years in the cities of Venice, Ravenna and Pisa. During his stay in Italy he frequently visited his friend and fellow poet Percy Bysshe Shelley. Later in life Byron joined the Greek War of Independence fighting the Ottoman Empire and died of disease leading a campaign during that war, for which Greeks revere him as a national hero. He died in 1824 at the age of 36 from a fever contracted after the First and Second Siege of Missolonghi.His only legitimate child, Ada Lovelace, is regarded as a foundational figure in the field of computer programming based on her notes for Charles Babbage's Analytical Engine. Byron's illegitimate children include Allegra Byron, who died in childhood, and possibly Elizabeth Medora Leigh. (wikipedia.org)
