Byron and World Literature
This essay considers how Byron’s life, work, and reception presides over the transformation of Enlightenment ideals of cosmopolitanism and worldliness into a form of global Romanticism that anticipates Goethe’s coinage ideal of Weltliteratur. A new regime of imperial global modernity provided the broader context for the emergence of world literature, which coincides with the reordering of Europe that followed the Napoleonic Wars. In this sense, G…
The Cambridge Companion to Byron
Deeply informed and appealingly written, this revised and updated second edition gives fresh life to the enthralling sexual, poetic and political contradictions that make Byron the first literary celebrity. Encompassing his entire oeuvre, the volume both provides an authoritative guide for students, and points to emerging new areas of research, highlighting Byron's ongoing relevance in an increasingly complex world both within academia and beyond…
In Byron’s Wake
This chapter explores Byron’s reception through the lens of the Byronic sense of occasion. Focusing on the history of Byron’s contemporary reception, it argues that Byronic reception involves a transformed scene of reading and writing, and a transformed temporality, which is acutely attuned to a sense of occasion, stretching the moment of reception and production across a longue durée. It is a critical commonplace that Byron’s writing is about it…

Anita Brookner
Anita Brookner est venue à la fiction tardivement, publiant son premier roman à l’âge de cinquante-trois ans, après une brillante carrière d’historienne de l’art français. Ce simple fait soulève bien des questions concernant son œuvre. Comment expliquer le rapport entre l’histoire de l’art et les romans, la non-fiction et la fiction, l’art français et la littérature anglaise ? Cet article envisage ces questions en se penchant sur le rôle majeur d…
Byron in Context
George Gordon, the sixth Lord Byron (1788–1824), was one of the most celebrated poets of the Romantic period, as well as a peer, politician and global celebrity, famed not only for his verse, but for his controversial lifestyle and involvement in the Greek War of Independence. In thirty-seven concise, accessible essays, by leading international scholars, this volume explores the social and intertextual relationships that informed Byron's writing;…
Speechless
This essay interrogates the culture of romantic love by examining the trope of speechlessness, analysing a particularly resonant moment in this culture’s history: the ritual craze of Werther-fever that followed the publication of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe’s The Sorrows of Young Werther (1774). Spreading the words (or 'no words') through which to be speechless, Werther-fever is a foundational moment in the modern culture of romantic love that ins…
Lord Byron and Scandalous Celebrity
Sanditon
Written in 1817 and not published until 1925, Austen's posthumously published novel fragment, Sanditon, has always enjoyed a privileged relation to temporal discontinuity. My essay re-examines the question of Austen and history by engaging Sanditon in relation to a historicity of participant-witnessing and productive anachronism. I take as my starting point a particularly rich example of one of those oblique, sparing, and, consequently, ironicall…
Late Disturbances
This article examines Maria Edgeworth's parodic essay on the ‘Irish bull’ (a form of blunder or linguistic absurdity associated with the Irish), as a form of counter-Whig history. It argues that Edgeworth satirically refunctions the genre of the Irish bull by interrogating its presumptive status as an essentially Irish form of speech and exposing it instead as an English imperial genre. Engaging the Essay against the contexts of the 1798 United I…
