Download or read book Byron s Historical Dramas written by Richard Lansdown and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Byron's poetic reputation is currently founded on his comic epic Don Juan and its cognates Beppo and The Vision of Judgement. Works outside this group are still regarded with some uncertainty. This study demonstrates that some of Byron's most deeply held critical and political convictions--but also certain aspects of his experience over which he had comparatively little conscious control--found expression in his historical dramas of 1820-1821: Marino Faliero, Sardanapalus, and The Two Foscari. In these plays Byron responds with the fullest degree of imaginative intelligence to his work on the management subcommittee at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, the background to which is given its most extensive treatment yet; to his involvement with the Italian nationalist movement; to his advocacy of neo-classical dramatic form and above all to his understanding of Shakespeare and of Shakespeare's reputation among Romantic critics. Lansdown illuminates a fascinating but overlooked aspect of Byron's oeuvre in which the literary, the historical, and the political are closely intertwined.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Literary historians have repeatedly observed that while Scott as a poet was the first British literary lion of the nineteenth century, his fame was supplanted by Byron as a poet starting in 1812. But that is as far as they take the relationship seriously, for the two writers are traditionally thought of as very different, even as political and temperamental opposites. But in fact, the two writers met each other in 1815, liked each other, and cherished their friendship the rest of their lives. The story of their relationship in personal terms was not over. Nor was the literary relationship, this study ventures. Scott embarked on an entirely new career in 1814, inventing the historical novel. Byron was swept away by these “Waverley novels,” and in his years of exile to the Continent from 1816 on, repeatedly beseeched his publisher to send Scott’s latest novels. The position here is that those novels were important to Byron’s development in both literary and existential respects. Byron’s historical dramas, his Don Juan, The Island, and his final fling, into the Greek Revolution, show an evolution of both the Byronic Hero and Byron himself in a context his friend Scott had opened up for him.

He also criticises the German taste for lawless passion which drives the feeling soul to frenzy, and sensibility with sickly mien which heaves the deep sigh and calls the starting tear. More drastic was the attack by John Styles, whose Essay on the Character and Influence of the Stage on Morals and Happiness (second edition, 1807) carries on the tradition of Tertullian and Grosseteste, Prynne and Collier. He writes (p. The recent introduction of the German drama may be considered a phoe nomenon in the world of dissipation. The writings of Con greve and Dryden are absolutely pure, when compared with the vile disgusting offspring of the profligate Kotzebue. In 1798 appeared The Rovers, by Frere and Canning, the anti-jacobin's famous parody of the German plays. It had much to do with the swift decline of the vogue towards the end of the century. The fashion of tragedy began to change. Horrors continued to be popular, says Brandl (p. But less in the way of robbers, ghosts, and tyrants, external mis eries, crass romances, and empty tirades, than in inward commotions of the soul. There are attempts at psychological analysis. This tendency is seen in Wordsworth's Borderers (1795 Lamb's John Woodvil Scott's Sensuality and Revenge and Coleridge's Osorio. The new psychological drama is, however, best represented by the series of Plays on the Passions by Joanna Baillie.
