Resumen
GARCIA, Mary Anne Mc Danel de. The Napoleón mystique and British poets. Rev. Cient. Gen. José María Córdova [online]. 2019, vol.17, n.26, pp.358-377. ISSN 1900-6586. https://doi.org/10.21830/19006586.382.
This reflection on the influence of Napoleon and the consequences of the wars on the major British poets of the Romantic era is meant to illustrate how the reactions of both nobility and commoners are recorded in literature and media. The dual perception of Napoleon as both hero and tyrant and the atrocious suffering of those at home and bloody battles are manifest in the works of the major poets, William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Percy Bysshe Shelly, and especially George Gordon, Lord Byron. Even today, Napoleon transcends precise definition and he has inspired some of the greatest poets in British literature.
