Childe Harold's Pilgrimage V1-2 (1829)

Childe Harold's Pilgrimage is a two-volume epic poem written by the famous British poet, Lord Byron, and published in 1829. The poem follows the travels and experiences of the protagonist, Childe Harold, as he embarks on a journey through Europe and the Mediterranean. Throughout the poem, Byron explores themes such as love, nature, war, and the human condition. He uses vivid descriptions and powerful imagery to transport the reader to the various locations that Childe Harold visits, including Spain, Greece, and Italy. The first volume of the poem was published in 1812, and the second volume was released in 1818. The 1829 edition combines both volumes and includes revisions and additions made by Byron over the years. Childe Harold's Pilgrimage is considered one of Byron's greatest works and is credited with helping to establish the Romantic movement in literature. Its influence can be seen in the works of other famous poets such as Percy Bysshe Shelley and John Keats.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
