Byron (1788-1824) was one of the most acclaimed writers of his day, and today he remains one of the most widely read of the Romantic poets. The most European of the English writers of his day, Byron was a man of the world, actively engaged in the events of the time, a fact which is discernible in his verse. He also displays a mastery of a sweeping range of topics, subjects and forms, which reveal his interest in poetic tradition. This new selection of his poetry, prepared by the editor of his "Complete Poetical Works", includes excerpts from all of Byron's important works: "Childe Harolde's Pilgrimage", "The Corsair", "Manfred", "Beppo" and "Don Juan". In addition, many shorter lyrics are included.

Paul Muldoon was born in County Armagh in 1951. He read English at Queen's University, Belfast, and published his first collection of poems, New Weather, in 1973. He is the author of ten books of poetry, including Moy Sand and Gravel (2002), for which he received the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry, and Horse Latitudes (2006). Since 1987 he has lived in the United States, where he is the Howard G. B. Clark Professor in the Humanities at Princeton University. From 1999 to 2004 he was Professor of Poetry at Oxford University. A Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature, Paul Muldoon was given an American Academy of Arts and Letters award in 1996. Other recent awards include the 1994 T. S. Eliot Prize, the 1997 Irish Times Poetry Prize, and the 2003 Griffin Prize.
