Carlos Gardel
By
Orlando del Greco
he most famous English poet of all times. He is the same one that said «I think the English are the most detestable race under the skies».
At age twenty he released his early poems under the title of
Hours of Idleness
. After his travels to Portugal, Spain, Greece and Turkey he returned to England with two cantos of his renowned poem “Childe Harold's Pilgrimage”. From 1812 to 1814 he published the poems “The Giaour”, “The Bride of Abydos”, “The Corsair” and “Lara”. In Italy he continued writing “Childe Harold's” and wrote “Don Juan”, as well as the dramas “Manfred”, “Sardanapalus”, “Cain”, “The Two Foscari”, “Marino Faliero”, “Parisina”, “Pilgrimage”.
Among his large number of poems, the great Mexican poet Manuel María Flores (1840-1885) translated to Spanish “The harp” and “To Jenny”. The latter recorded by
Carlos Gardel
50 years later under the title “Hay una virgen”. On the record of the first recording it says that it belongs to Pardo and in the later one, to Gardel-Razzano.
Byron was born in London on January 22, 1788 and died in Missolonghi (Greece) on April 19, 1824.
