Coleridge
Lord Byron and Some of His Contemporaries
According Lord Bryon, Mr. Charles Lamb’s friend, Mr. Samuel Taylor Coleridge, is as little fitted for action as he, but on a different account. His person is of a good height, but as sluggish and solid as the other’s is light and fragile. He has, perhaps, suffered it to look old before its time, for want of exercise. Mr. Coleridge is fat, and begins to lament, in very delightful verses, that he is getting infirm. There is no old age in his verses…

Byron, Shelley, Keats, Coleridge, Blake, and Wordsworth all wrote and painted while Dante's work — its style, project, and achievement — commanded their attention and provoked the…

Byron Turning to Stone
As Byron asserts how Don Juan should be perceived as ‘the sublime of that there sort of writing’ among other things, he emphasizes ‘that there’ despite the grammatical error since it focuses on actual fact and how Don Juan consistently made use of a tactic that lowers the tone to make ‘life’ attainable. The candour towards actuality expressed in this poem attempts to differentiate it from the moralized poetry of other writers. Byron claims, howev…
