Walter Savage Landor was a 19th century English writer and poet. His best known works were the prose Imaginary Conversations, and the poem Rose Aylme. In 1793 Landor went to Trinity College, Oxford. Gebir was first begun in Latin and then Landor switched to English. "Gebir" tells the story of a prince of Spain who falls in love with his enemy Queen Charoba of Egypt. Gebir promises his father he will settle an ancestral feud by invading Egypt. When he reaches Egypt his thoughts turn to love and he seeks to rebuild the past. His brother Tamar must deal with a sea nymph far away from the struggles of mankind.
