Soútsos, Aléxandros

▪ Greek poet
born 1803, Constantinople
died 1863

      Greek poet who founded the Greek Romantic school of poetry.

      Soútsos studied in Chios (Khíos) and later in Paris, where he was influenced by the French Romantics and by liberal political opinion. His verse satires are his liveliest writings and inspired the early development of modern political liberalism in Greece. His dramas and one long prose work, the Exóristos (“The Exile”), were considered cold and artificial, but his numerous lyrics were admired by his contemporaries. Lord Byron's Childe Harold was the model for his longest poem, Periplanoménos (“The Wanderer”). His collected works were published in 1916.
