George Gordon Byron, 6th Baron Byron, but more commonly known as just Byron was a leading English poet in the Romantic Movement along with Keats and Shelley. Byron was born on January 22nd, 1788. He was a great traveller across Europe, spending many years in Italy and much time in Greece. With his aristocratic indulgences, flamboyant style along with his debts, and a string of lovers he was the constant talk of society. In 1823 he joined the Greeks in their war of Independence against the Ottoman Empire, both helping to fund and advise on the war's conduct. It was an extraordinary adventure, even by his own standards. But, for us, it is his poetry for which he is mainly remembered even though it is difficult to see where he had time to write his works of immense beauty. But write them he did. He died on April 19th 1824 after having contracted a cold which, on the advice of his doctors, was treated with blood-letting. This cause complications and a violent fever set in.

Reading this made me like Manfred Symphony more than I did already. I had no idea that was possible. The poem was everything I expected… and then some. ( )

(Original Review, 1981-02-10)

It has been a long time since I read “Manfred”, and much longer since “Paradise Lost”, so maybe I am wrong. But Milton's Satan was first and foremost, I think, rebellious. Satan's will was his own, NOT God's, he was so to speak his own man. He could not regain Paradise because wherever he went, Hell went. Satan in Paradise is Satan still in Hell, "myself am Hell". This Satan might have BEEN Sublime, but by the 20th century he is no more than a literary symbol. Manfred was still able to be Satanic, but he too was first and foremost, a creature of his own will, and thereby alone and lonely. But despite all those crags and peaks, there is no Sublime left for him to be for us. And in us I include Dashiell Hammett. The Dark is no longer anything religious or based in any thing of the sort. There is no Devil or Satan, cosmically majestic being. Manfred was a metaphysical play, that could only be called paranormal today. Satan exists in media in all his ancient regalia, but we are talking genre fiction, Hollywood, and comic books, and he has to coexist with Aliens from deep space or buried under the ice, or from another dimension. The recent hero of comics, a movie, and now TV; some modern TV characters are really just Sam Space, a bit grungier and dealing with supernatural villains.

The great Romantic concepts of the Sublime, Poetry, Imagination, Dream, were all much diminished by Hammett's time and have done nothing but lose steam since then. If Hammett had made Sam Spade into a Manfred we would only see the Corny, not the Sublime. ( )
