L'esuberante capolavoro di byron racconta le avventure di don juan, a partire dalla sua relazione amorosa illecita all'età di sedici anni nella sua nativa spagna e dal suo successivo esilio in italia. Dopo un drammatico naufragio, le sue gesta lo portano in grecia, dove viene venduto come schiavo, e in russia, dove diventa il favorito dell'imperatrice caterina che lo manda in inghilterra. Scritto interamente in forma di strofa in ottava rima, il don juan di byron fonde dramma elevato con umorismo volgare, satira oltraggiosa dei suoi contemporanei (in particolare wordsworth e southey) e tagliente presa in giro delle società occidentali, con l'inghilterra che viene particolarmente attaccata.

George Gordon Byron was born on 22 January 1788 and inherited the barony in 1798. He gained a reputation for his startling good looks and extravagant behaviour, and on the publication of 'Childe Harold's Pilgrimage' became famous overnight. In 1815 he married Annabella Millbanke, but they were seaprated after a year. The rumoured relationship with his half-sister Augusta lead him to leave England in 1816. He eventually settled in Italy and supported Italian revolutionary movements, and in 1823 left to fight for Greek independence. He contracted fever and died in 1824.
