Byron: The Erotic Liberal explores the relationship between Byron's erotic life and his political commitments, placing his poetry in the context of the work of other aristocratic liberals such as Madame de Stael.

Byron: The Erotic Liberal is the first book to focus on the erotic dimension of Byron''s political career, as expressed in both Byron''s poetry and his prose. Jonathan David Gross draws on extensive archival research into the life and letters of Lady Melbourne, whose correspondence with Byron shaped his erotic imagination and influenced his engagement with the biblical story of Joseph. Gross places Byron''s politics in the context of the writings of other European aristocratic liberals, such as Madame de Sta`l, to consider anew Byron''s relationship to women and his political peers. Yet Gross successfully brings Byron into our modern age, making use of recent work in women''s studies and gay studies to explain how Byron''s sexuality shaped his political beliefs.
