Volume 2 (August 1811-April 1814) Part of Byron's Works a New, Revised and Enlarged Edition, with Illustrations. This volume edited by Rowland E. Prothero 1898
The second volume of Mr. Murray's edition of Byron's
Letters and Journals
carries the autobiographical record of the poet's life from August, 1811, to April, 1814. Between these dates were published
Childe Harold
(Cantos I., II.),
The Waltz, The Giaour, The Bride of Abydos
, the
Ode to Napoleon Buonaparte
. At the beginning of this period Byron had suddenly become the idol of society; towards its close his personal popularity almost as rapidly declined before a storm of political vituperation.
great collections of Byron's letters, as was noted in the Preface to the previous volume
, are in existence. The first is contained in Moore's
Baron George Gordon Byron Byron
