The spirit of the times in Byron's poems

Byron and Shelley, both romantic poets, appreciate each other, which constitutes a combination of two swords in the history of English poetry. At the same time, he was highly praised by Mr. Lu Xun, which shows that the brilliance of his poetry and personality is indelible. The well-known Don Juan is one of his long narrative lyrics, and "Byronic hero" has become a unique figure.

The great essayist william hazlitt once said of Byron: "Byron surpassed all his contemporaries in sloppy, reckless and eccentric aspects."

The monster attacks and gives you a base. Can you resist the siege of monsters?

There are two understandings of Byron's poems: one is to flaunt his own maverick in his poems, which is the only reason why his poems are respected; The second is to integrate his yearning, love and pursuit of freedom into poetry, and convey his inner romance and unruly to the world through poetry.

Both views are based on a deep understanding of self-expression in Byron's poems.

China people are very lacking in self-expression. Due to the influence of introverted and conservative character in China traditional culture, we seldom highlight ourselves, show people's personality, and rarely shout for the liberation of personality. In this regard, today we will take a look at how this Englishman looks at the world through poetry, understands his feelings, and then shows his personality and pursues the free world of mankind.

1, I would like to be a carefree child.

I want to be a carefree child,

Still living in caves on the plateau,

Or wandering in the desert,

Or prance on the dark blue waves;

Saxon glitz and red tape

Against my natural free will,

I miss the rugged hillside,

I yearn for the boulder that the wild waves beat.

Fate! Please take back the rich land,

Take back this resounding honorary title!

I hate being greeted humbly,

I hate being surrounded by slaves.

Put me back in my favorite mountain,

Listen to rocks and roaring seas;

I just want me to relive it.

I have been familiar with the scenery of my old country since I was a child.

Although I am young, I can feel it.

This world is by no means mine;

Why did the shadow of the underworld regain its power?

The moment when the world bid farewell to the world?

I caught a glimpse of a brilliant dream-

The magical illusion of Elysium;

The truth! Why is your damn light

Wake me up to face this world?

I loved-the person I loved has left;

Have friends-the early friendship has ended;

How can a lonely heart not be depressed,

When all the initial hopes become dim!

Even naughty companions at the party

Dispel bad emotions in an instant;

Excitement can lift the crazy soul,

My heart is always lonely.

How boring! Listen to those people gossiping:

Those people and I are neither enemies nor friends,

Is it family, power, wealth or opportunity?

Let them gather with me before the party.

Give me some loyal friends,

Still the original age and mood;

Avoid noisy gangs in the middle of the night,

Their happiness is just a hollow reputation.
