The literary relationship of Lord Byron & Thomas Moore

Description:

"In The Literary Relationship of Lord Byron and Thomas Moore, Vail reconstructs the social, political, and literary contexts of both writers' works through extensive consultation of nineteenth-century sources - including hundreds of contemporary reviews and articles on the two writers and over five hundred unpublished manuscript letters written by Moore.". "Beginning with Byron's youthful attempts to imitate Moore's early erotic lyrics, Vail analyzes the impact of Moore's lyric poems, satires, and songs upon Byron's works. He then examines Byron's influences upon Moore, especially in Moore's Orientalist and narrative poems written after 1816."--BOOK JACKET.
