==Life and works==
Taylor was born January 11, 1825, to Quaker parents in the village of Kenneth Square.<ref>http://www.online-literature.com/bayard-taylor/</ref> It was a small town, too small for his developing literary interest, and he soon left for New York and in 1844 published ''Ximena: or, the Battle of the Sierra Morena''.<ref>http://kennettlibrary.org/taylor.cfm</ref> Sponsored by newspapers, he was able to leave New York for Europe, and wrote poems and travel guides about it, which were successful enough that he was sent to Egypt, India, China, and Japan, and did not return to the United States until 1853.<ref>https://www.poemhunter.com/james-bayard-taylor/biography/</ref> He wrote about foreign ideas in ''Views Afoot'' (1846), about his own experience in ''Eldorado'' (1850), and in his later years, translated Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's ''Faust''.<ref>"Taylor, Bayard." ''Encyclopedia Britannica Online''.</ref>
