Don Juan

Meer over het boek

Exploring themes of seduction and gender roles, Lord Byron's epic poem reimagines Don Juan as a man who is easily led astray by women rather than a notorious seducer. Written in ottava rima across sixteen cantos, it blends Romanticism with elements from earlier literary traditions. Byron's unique portrayal challenges conventional narratives, providing a satirical commentary on love and desire while showcasing his mastery of poetic form.
