Overview

Byron and Bob is the first book ever to be dedicated to the most important literary relationship in Byron's career - that with the Poet Laureate, Robert Southey, whom he hated, and to whom he dedicated his most important poem, Don Juan. Drawing on much unseen manuscript material, Peter Cochran shows that although Byron's antipathy towards Southey was at first a normal literary distaste, it became, the more he ingested his private image of Southey, a projected self-distrust, a dislike of everything in himself with which he was unhappy. The book has as appendix a double edition of the two Visions of Judgement, firstly Southey's original, and then Byron's travesty, in which he has succeeded in rendering his enemy ridiculous to all succeeding generations. These two important works have not been published together for many years.
