I am alone amidst storms and thunder...

The bright and brief life of Lord George Gordon Byron (1788–1824), the poetic images he created had an incredible impact on his contemporaries. The term «Byronic» hero became emblematic — his romantic gloom and disappointment turned into a kind of... social phenomenon. The fate of the lord himself — an eternal wanderer driven by passions — also aroused great interest. In high Russian society, traditionally francophone, Byron's work provoked an interest in the English language. Outstanding poets of many generations became his translators, to name just a few: Mikhail Lermontov, Alexander Blok, Valery Bryusov. The collection presents Byron's lyrics — from youthful experiences to poems written in the last days of his life.
