Childe Harold’s Pilgrimage : Cantos I–IV

The book, which at one time produced the most ambitious scandal in the history of British literature of the XIX century. This is a book that was desperately admired and equally desperately outraged. The poem that shocked the foundations of the foundations of morality and morality of its era and gave the world one of the most famous literary heroes of mankind – a hero without whom neither Pushkin Onegin nor Lermontov Pechorin would exist.
