Von der hinteren Coverseite

The quintessential depiction of the Byronic hero is accompanied in this edition by a substantial selection of contextual materials, including Byron's original draft of the play's conclusion; influences on the poem, such as Paradise Lost, Goethe's Faust, and Vathek; further examples of the Byronic hero from the poet's other writings; a selection of contemporary reviews; and an excerpt from Man-Fred, a dramatic parody in which the protagonist is reimagined as a chimney-sweep.
