Özet

At a time when the Romantic movement was sweeping the European continent in the early 19th century, among musicians, writers and playwrights, perhaps nobody embodied and personified the Romantic movement quite like Lord Byron, the famous English poet whose life and works are both the stuff of legend. In addition to being celebrated for poems like She Walks in Beauty, When We Two Parted, and So, we'll go no more a roving, Byron was also notorious for living in excess, racking up debts and liaisons at increasingly reckless speeds. Despite his fame and abilities, he eventually exiled himself, ultimately traveling to fight in the Greek War of Independence against the Ottoman Turks. Lord Byron would fall ill and die during the war at the young age of 36, but the Greeks consider him a national hero, and people have been reading his material and talking about his life ever since. Manfred was written between 1816 and 1817, and was described by Bryon as a "metaphysical drama".

abbot: alas! how pale thou art—thy lips are white_ and thy breast heaves-and in thy gasping throat the accents rattle. give thy prayers to heaven— pray—albeit but in thought, but die not thus. manfred: ‘t is over—my dull eyes can fix thee not; but all things swim around me, and the earth heaves as it were beneath me. fare thee well-give me thy hand. abbot: cold-cold-even to the heart— but yet one prayer-alas! how fares it with thee? manfred: old man! ‘t is not so difficult to die. [manfred expires. abbot: he’s gone, his soul hath ta’en its earthless flight; whither? i dread to think; but he is gone.
