Sir Drummond Bone, Master of Balliol College, University of Oxford, discusses his passion for the poetry of Lord Byron. He shows how Byron's extraordinary life fed into his writing to produce the most popular writer after Shakespeare. We are entertained by Sir Drummond's own readings of his favourite poems and with insights on the use of irony. The video features artistic filming and appropriately romantic music.

In his epic unfinished masterpiece 'Don Juan', Byron wrote that he set out to show that life can not be put down to a system of thought, but yet ironically that in itself is a system of thought.

Finally, an intelligent display of intellectual resource from which I'm better suited to draw fresh perspective. It seems that most of the so called college professor scholars I've listened to are from the "author only" school of thought. Get a life dudes!The hardcover edition of "The Cambridge companion to Byron" is a true gem. Thank you for this post.

I love literature because one reason is poetry, Its work doesn't much more has time to be read then Novel that has hundreds or thousands of pages. Its work has language style which makes the readers or audiences in swing and blowing mind or even heart. Very poetic when the poets read their works in the balance of gesture and rythem. adding in their vocals which always stand fluctuative, what's the great pharaprase that they hide in their work !. Insya Allah, I' ll go to this university to much more learn this lesson, I gotta plan to learn much more studies, not only in literature but also in social science "PIR" and Humanities "English" 🇬🇧♥️. I hope Allah always supports me to achieve this Kindness, Amin 🇬🇧♥️

Didn't Byron say....I woke up one day and I was famous? I love that because I know a recent music phenomenon who said exactly the same thing.
