      ab: The article focuses on letters written to Romantic poet Lord Byron by English writer Leigh Hunt between 1815 and 1816, after Byron visited Hunt in Horsemonger Lane Gaol in London, England. The author suggests that, while it has been traditionally thought that Hunt was the primary writer of letters in the correspondence, Byron also wrote regularly to Hunt, often directly in reply to Hunt's letters. Topics of the letters include the poem "The Story of Rimini" and the work "The Descent of Liberty" by Hunt and the poems "The Corsair," "The Siege of Corinth," and "English Bards and Scotch Reviewers" by Byron. Several letters between Byron and Hunt are reprinted in the article.
