Algernon Charles Swinburne (5 April 1837 - 10 April 1909) was an English poet, playwright, novelist, and critic. He was a major contributor to the Pre-Raphaelite movement in poetry, along with Dante Gabriel Rossetti and William Morris. His greatest works are the verse drama Atalanta in Calydon (1865), written in the form of an Ancient Greek tragedy, and his Pre-Raphaelite Poems and Ballads (1866). In his poetry, Swinburne rebelled against the Christian morality of the Victorian era, drawing from classical, medieval, and Renaissance sources to explore atheism in "Hymn to Proserpine," suicide in "The Triumph of Time," queer desire in "Anactoria," and sadomasochism in "Dolores." While Swinburne's work attracted considerable scandal, it had prominent Victorian defenders, including John Ruskin. References for first and second printing-states: Wise 36, 37. Ashley VI, 64, 68.
