Abstract
When Lord Byron settled in Ravenna in 1820 he found a city that for him had strong associations with the poets Virgil, Dante and John Dryden. Inspired by these laureates, Byron's writings from that era, most notably his poem “The Vision of Judgment,” articulate a vision of the laureate as a champion of both political and poetic reform. Acting as “laureate-in-exile,” Byron attacks the sitting English Poet Laureate, Robert Southey, for his political and poetical apostasy.
