About
This epic poem tells the dramatic story of King Pelayo, an Asturian ruler in Northern Spain who lead his people to a hard-fought victory over the Moors in 722. The young poet was greatly inspired by the works of Lord Byron. Her heroically emotive style reflects trends popular with Byron and other writers associated with Romantic Literature. - Summary by Kelly Taylor
