Swinburne, Algernon Charles

Swinburne, Algernon Charles (1837–1909)

English poet. He attracted attention with the choruses of his Greek-style tragedy Atalanta in Calydon (1865), but he and Rossetti were attacked in 1871 as leaders of ‘the fleshly school of poetry’, and the revolutionary politics of Songs before Sunrise (1871) alienated others. His verse is notable for its emotion and opulent language.
