Beschreibung

"The Waltz" is a poem written and published by Lord Byron in October 1812. The poem describes the point of view of the London author on the Waltz, a particular type of dance.The waltz, in fact, was the most fashionable dance in London in the early 1800s ,and Lord Byron hated all types of dance. The text, therefore, is somewhat bizarre and satirical: it's a shameless criticism of the waltz and the ridiculous physicality of the waltz dancers. The text perfectly describes Lord Byron's hatred of dance in general.
