| Summary |
"Don Juan" is Lord Byron's epic satire and is widely consideredℓhis masterpiece, though during his lifetime it was both controversial and alsoℓwildly popular.ℓDon Juan, or Don Giovanni,ℓis a fictionalized character, largely portrayed as aℓlibertine and a womanizer,ℓwho appears in many works, from opera to literature, beginning in the mid-seventeenth century. Byron's Don Juanℓ(for poetic rhyme, pronounced jew-an), however, is portrayed as an innocent, who rather than being the seducer, becomes the seduced. The poem was written and published in cantos, or poetic divisions, between 1818 and 1824 and has more than 16,000 lines of verse. Byron completed 16 cantos, leaving a 17th, found later among his letters and journals, unfinished at his death. This volume containsℓcantos seven through 16.ℓ |
