Don Juan by Baron George Gordon Byron Byron
"Don Juan" by Baron George Gordon Byron is a satirical epic poem written between 1819 and 1824. This unfinished work reimagines the legendary Spanish seducer as a young man easily seduced by women rather than the traditional womanizer. Told across sixteen cantos in ottava rima verse, the poem follows Juan's adventures from a scandalous affair in Seville through shipwreck, slavery, war, and romance across Europe and Russia. Byron's bold satire of social
conventions and public figures sparked controversy upon publication, cementing its place as a daring literary masterpiece. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
