George Gordon Byron

George Gordon Byron pochodził z arystokratycznej rodziny angielskiej, nosił tytuł lorda; ukończył uniwersytet w Cambridge, zasłynął jako romantyczny poeta i dramaturg. Lord Byron uważany jest za poetę zbuntowanego z uwagi na liczne skandale, kontrowersyjne wystąpienia oraz aktywny udział w ruchach wyzwoleńczych. Zawarte w 1815 r. małżeństwo z Anną Izabellą Milbanke zakończyło się rozwodem. Największym skandalem w życiu Byrona był romans z przyrodnią siostrą — Augustą Leigh. Ta sytuacja zmusiła go do opuszczenia Anglii. Gordon przeniósł się do Szwajcarii, a następnie osiadł we Włoszech. Poznał tam nacjonalistkę włoską — Teresę Guiccioli, która była jego ogromną miłością. Z jej powodu zaangażował się w ideę wyzwolenia i zjednoczenia Italii. Kiedy w 1824 r. wybuchło powstanie greckie przeciwko Turcji, wyruszył do Missolonghi, gdzie wkrótce potem zmarł na febrę.
