 Swinburne, Algernon Charles --  Britannica Student Encyclopedia
Algernon Charles Swinburne's ideas defied the conventions of his time, but his poems contained a wealth of language and enchanting melodies.
The characteristic qualities of his verse are insistent alliteration, unflagging rhythmic energy, sheer melodiousness, great variation of pace and stress, effortless expansion of a given theme, and evocative if rather imprecise use of imagery.
He is chiefly remembered, however, as the friend and self-appointed protector of the poet Algernon Charles Swinburne.

 RPO -- Selected Poetry of Algernon Charles Swinburne (1837-1909)
Swinburne was born April 5, 1837, in London, the child of an admiral, Captain Charles Henry Swinburne, and Lady Henrietta Swinburne.
This news much disappointed Swinburne and is perhaps reflected in poems like "Dolores." In 1865 Swinburne brought out Chastelard, a Tragedy, the first part of a Mary Queen of Scots trilogy, to be completed by Bothwell (1874), and Mary Stuart (1881).
Swinburne defended his poems as art for the sake of art, and his interests in sado-masochism as impersonal, in Notes on Poems and Reviews; and W. Rossetti followed suit in Swinburne's Poems and Ballads: A Criticism the same year.
