Book Description
The Age of Bronze or carmen seculare et annus haud mirabilis by Byron "Impar Congressus Achilli." The Age of Bronze displays a wealth of Spanish allusion and, significantly, Byron refers to Spain with exactly the same adjectives- 'renowned, romantic'-that he had used in Childe Harold, and again views the Spaniards as freedom fighters. As this essay explains, the numerous allusions in the poem to the country and its American colonies (which were then in the process of emancipation) can only be understood in the light of its author's alertness to contemporary events, among which revolutionary Spain was once again paramount. Working from its first MS draft (at the Bodleian Library) has contributed further insights into this complex poem. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Age of Bronze: Or, Carmen Seculare Et Annus Haud Mirabilis The Age of Bronze. The "good old times" - all times when old are good - Are gone; the Present might be if they would; Great things have been, and are, and greater still Want little of mere mortals but their will; A wider space, a greener field is given To those who play their "tricks before high heaven." I known not if the angles weep, but men Have wept enough - for what? - to weep again. All is exploded - be it good or bad. Reader! remember when thou wert a lad, Then Pitt was all; or, if not all, so much, His very rival almost demmed him such.
