More about the book
Born into a wealthy family, Algernon Charles Swinburne emerged as a significant literary figure in the 19th century, gaining fame with his verse dramas and notably "Atalanta in Calydon." His works are characterized by intense lyricism, intricate imagery, and bold rhythms, though he faced criticism for his "indecent" themes. Plagued by health issues and alcoholism, his life was transformed by friend Theodore Watts-Dunton, who helped him recover but also restricted his creative output. Swinburne's legacy includes influential poetry and insightful literary criticism before his death in 1909.
