Dryden was the first practitioner of comparison and analysis in the history of criticism. And therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that English criticism evolved from Dryden.
Yeats explores his thoughts and musings on how immortality, art, and the human spirit may converge. Through the use of various poetic techniques, Yeats's Sailing to Byzantium describes the metaphorical journey of a man pursuing his own vision of eternal life as well as his conception of paradise.
Romantics stressed the individual creativity and the freedom to innovate. Romanticism focussed on the use of creative imagination and the importance of myth and symbolism

4. The plot of the poem
poem established Byron's European reputation.
describes the voyage and the reflections of a pilgrim (Childe Harold, the
archaic title Childe a youth of gentle birth) turned from an empty life of
pleasure now seeking spiritual rebirth.
The first 2 cantos describe his journey through Portugal, Spain, the Ionian
Isles, and Albania.
The conclusion of the second canto, a lament that Greece is subject to the
tyranny of the Turks – interesting in the light of Byron's subsequent
participation in the Greek struggle for freedom,
5. The plot of the poem
Canto Ⅲ brings the pilgrim to Belgium, the Rhineland, and Switzerland.
In each place, he reflects on historical associations – i.e., Waterloo where
Napoleon's ambitions were finally frustrated.
The passage in which Harold recreates the battle of Waterloo is one of the
best-known passages in the poem.
The description of Alpine scenery in this canto is admirable. The opening
lines of the canto have a peculiar pathos, addressed by Byron to his little
daughter whom he had not seen since she was five weeks old and never
again to see.
famous are the lines introducing Harold's characteristics – most important
point about Harold is that he is a typical Byronic Hero.
6. The Byronic Hero
men in rebellion against society.
lonely individualists, proud and willful.
Beneath cynicism and disdain for society in general, are deep
sadness and a pathetic feeling of hopelessness.
revolutionary figures rising single-handed against government or
religious, social or moral convention.
Such heroes are usually persons with strong passions,
unconquerable wills and inexhaustible energy
usually disillusioned in contemporary society and long for a better
life among simpler people less affected by civilization.
enemies are generally feudal rulers or Oriental despots.
The conflict is one of revolutionary individuals against worn out
social systems and conventions.
Characteristics of the Byronic Hero can best be illustrated in the
selected readings.
7. Childe Harold's Pilgrimage
is Romantic in the lavish descriptions and in its emotionalism.
Romantic in its emphasis on individualism. Through the presentation of Harold, Byron shows his
emphasis on individualism and love of nature as well as his hatred for and revolt against oppression.
Childe Harold – like Byron - is at odds with the world. They suffer. They are blessed (or cursed) with a
sensitivity denied to ordinary mortals.
They long for freedom as well as seeking liberty for those who are less fortunate than they are.
They love nature and past grandeur – deeply dissatisfied with the present society.
NB - The poem gives us insight into Byron's way of relating to the world. Childe Harold — and the poet who
tells us of the journeys of Childe Harold — is a conscious “literary” creation. In Childe Harold's Pilgrimage
we see Byron inclined to discuss seriously with the reader. ie – adoption of the Spenserian stanza,
traditional form, for a deeply personal topic – his view of the world.
8. To Ianthe
Not in those climes where I have late been straying,
Though Beauty long hath there been matchless deem'd;
Not in those visions to the heart displaying
Forms which it sighs but to have only dream'd,
Hath aught like thee in truth or fancy seem'd:
Nor, having seen thee, shall I vainly seek
To paint those charms which varied as they beam'd --
To such as see thee not my words were weak;
To those who gaze on thee what language could they
speak?Ah! may'st thou ever be what now thou art, 10
Nor unbeseem the promise of thy spring,
As fair in form, as warm yet pure in heart,
Love's image upon earth without his wing,
And guileless beyond Hope's imagining!
9. And surely she who now so fondly rears
Thy youth, in thee, thus hourly brightening,
Beholds the rainbow of her future years,
Before whose heavenly hues all sorrow disappears.
Young Peri of the West!-'tis well for me
My years already doubly number thine; 20
My loveless eye unmov'd may gaze on thee,
And safely view thy ripening beauties shine;
Happy, I ne'er shall see them in decline,
Happier, that while all younger hearts shall bleed,
Mine shall escape the doom thine eyes assign
To those whose admiration shall succeed,
But mixed with pangs to Love's even loveliest hours decreed.
10. Oh! let that eye, which, wild as the Gazelle's,
Now brightly bold or beautifully shy,
Wins as it wanders, dazzles where it dwells, 30
Glance o'er this page; nor to my verse deny
That smile for which my breast might vainly sigh,
Could I to thee be ever more than friend:
This much, dear maid, accord; nor question why
To one so young my strain I would commend,
But bid me with my wreath one matchless lily blend.
Such is thy name with this my verse entwin'd;
And long as kinder eyes a look shall cast
On Harold's page, Ianthe's here enshrin'd
Shall thus be first beheld, forgotten last: 40
My days once number'd, should this homage past
Attract thy fairy fingers near the lyre
Of him who hail'd thee, loveliest as thou wast,
Such is the most my memory may desire;
Though more than Hope can claim, could Friendship less require?
12. In the first Spenserian stanza of this excerpt, the
narrator begins by describing the serenity one
encounters when absorbed in Nature.
later goes on to mention that being enveloped in
Nature causes him to relish it more, and in
encountering it, he begins to feel inexpressible
emotions.
NATU
RE
13. 2nd
stanza,
Narrator directly addresses the Ocean.
Childe Harold remarks that the Ocean is taken for granted. He
proclaims that Man’s dominance ends where the shore ends
and that shipwrecks are the Ocean’s doing.
Man is indeed nothing in comparison when he is submerged
in the depths of the endless sea.
3rd
stanza,
Childe Harold admires the Ocean for all it has done for him.
He recollects as a child - playing in the sea waves.
Points out that if the waves were violent he drew a pleasing
fear from it all. Since he trusted his life to the sea, he had no
real fear of it all.
14. 4th
– 5th
stanza
Byron becomes the narrator.
In stanza four, he refers that it is time the
poem ends.
When he began the Cantos , that spirit within
him, is no more. That glow that lit his spirit is
now “fluttering, faint and low” (36).
15. There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,
There is a rapture on the lonely shore,
There is society, where none intrudes,
By the deep sea, and music in its roar:
I love not man the less, but Nature more,
From these our interviews, in which I steal
From all I may be, or have been before,
To mingle with the Universe, and feel
What I can ne'er express, yet cannot all conceal.
16. common poetic theme - the desire for wild, lonely places
strikes a responsive chord in most people, whether a
wish to be 'closer to nature' or a sense of beauty that
cities and people do not satisfy.
Or perhaps it is an extension of (or the cause of) a
wanderlust that pervades the entire poem.
17. “There is a pleasure… There is a rapture… There is society…
(1)”
“From these our interviews, in which I steal… From all I may
be, or have been before… (6)”
“My task is done – my song hath ceased – my theme has died…
(28)”
Smoother transitions- Byron’s parallelism occurs mostly
around the beginning of the stanzas, which helps smooth
the transition from one stanza to the next.
Emphasis on the ocean and man’s relentless nature- Man is
depicted as a brutal force that can only be stopped by the
calm, “watery plain” of the ocean.
Emphasis on Byron’s love of the ocean
18. “…upon the watery plain the wrecks are all thy deed, nor
doth remain a shadow of man’s ravage… (14)”
The personification gives life to the ocean, gives it
something to place blame on. Byron gives the ocean
life so he can accuse it of being just as bad as
humanity sometimes, without the conquering aspect.
19. “…without a grave, unknell’d, uncoffin’d, and unknown.
(18)”
Heavy emphasis on feeling of dread. This example in
the second stanza gives off a pervading sense of fear,
adding onto the helpless feeling in the second stanza.
“He wore his sandal-shoon, and scallop-shell… (43)”
Emphasis on the ocean. The second example of
alliteration mentions several beach related items such
as shells, scallops, and sandals, reinforcing the ocean
theme.
20. “When, for a moment, like a drop of rain… (16)”
Byron’s simile in the second stanza of the poem
serves to, again, further the water/ocean imagery. He
describes the raindrop as “sinking to the depths,”
and he says this after blaming the ocean for
wrecking ships, perhaps saying that the water bears
a heavy burden, just as much as humanity does.
