- Authors
VAN DAM, FREDERIK
- Abstract
The article discusses Thomas Moore and the diplomatic legacy of the Battle of Waterloo in the Nineteenth Century. It mentions that Moore's humorous poem stands in contrast to the sublime feelings articulated in the poems of Lord Byron and William Wordsworth. It mentions that as Moore's poem recognizes the importance of Battle of Waterloo, it reduces its significance to a memorial coin.
