«Don Juan» is Lord Byron's satirical epic poem, published by Unidad Editorial in hardcover (512 pages, in Spanish).
The poem follows the travels and misadventures of the legendary character, used by Byron as a vehicle to portray with irony the hypocrisy, ennui and customs of his era. Written in a conversational and exuberant tone, it combines adventure, humor and reflection on political and intellectual freedom, in the line of English Romanticism.
Published in 1999 within the collection «Las 100 joyas del milenio», with a prologue by Espido Freire.
For readers of classical poetry and nineteenth-century English literature, especially those interested in Romanticism and social satire.
George Gordon Byron, 6th Baron Byron, was a British poet. He was one of the major figures of the Romantic movement, and is regarded as being among the greatest British poets. Among his best-known works are the lengthy narratives Don Juan and Childe Harold's Pilgrimage; many of his shorter lyrics in Hebrew Melodies also became popular.
