Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Gordon Byron, 6th Baron Byron (1788-1824) was an English peer. He's best known today for his poetry but also dabbled in politics and died supporting the Greek War of Independence. In his day, he had a scandalous reputation because of his irregular home life and radical politics. "Byronic" heroes-dark, brooding, and dangerous-were a staple of Romantic literature and named for him. Byron is also notable for fathering the English mathematician Ada Lovelace (1815-1852), his only (legitimate) offspring. "Don Juan" is considered Byron's magnum opus: a long, satirical poem about life, social mores, literary and political in-fighting-and occasionally Don Juan. Byron borrows the name only (not even the name's pronunciation!) from Spanish folklore. His Don Juan is not a heartless seducer, but a beautiful young man who cannot help having women fall in love with him as he travels the Europe of his day. This book is in the Deseret Alphabet, a phonetic alphabet for writing English developed in the mid-19th century at the University of Deseret (now the University of Utah).

Book excerpt: DON JUAN by Lord Byron is a satirical epic poem that follows the adventures of the legendary Spanish character Don Juan. Published in parts between 1819 and 1824, this poem is considered to be one of Byron's most famous and influential works. The story of Don Juan is one that has been retold and adapted countless times throughout history, but Byron's version stands out for its clever wit, social commentary, and poetic skill. The poem begins with Don Juan's birth and traces his life as he travels through Spain, Italy, Greece, and Russia, encountering various women and getting entangled in numerous scandals and affairs. At its core, DON JUAN is a scathing satire of society and its conventions. Byron uses his protagonist as a vehicle to criticize the hypocritical and corrupt nature of the upper classes. Through Don Juan's interactions with high society, the reader is exposed to the vanity, greed, and immorality that permeate this world. By blending humor with social commentary, Byron creates a powerful indictment of the society he lived in. However, DON JUAN is not just a social satire. It also delves into philosophical and psychological themes. Don Juan is a complex character, torn between his desires and moral obligations. He represents the struggle between reason and passion, and Byron uses him to explore the human condition and the complexities of love, sex, and relationships. Byron's writing style in DON JUAN is nothing short of brilliant. He seamlessly combines traditional poetic forms with modern elements, such as colloquial language and pop culture references. This fusion creates a lively and dynamic narrative that is both entertaining and thought-provoking. Byron's mastery of language and his ability to evoke emotion through his words make DON JUAN a true literary masterpiece. In addition to its literary merit, DON JUAN also caused quite a stir when it was first published. Its bold and controversial themes, including sex, religion, and politics, sparked debates and even led to the poem being banned in some countries. However, this did not stop its popularity, and the poem has since become a classic and a must-read for any lover of literature. In conclusion, DON JUAN by Lord Byron is a timeless work that continues to captivate readers with its clever satire, profound insights, and masterful storytelling. It not only offers a commentary on society but also provides a glimpse into the mind of one of the most influential poets of the Romantic era. Its enduring appeal and relevance make it a must-read for anyone interested in exploring the complexities of human nature and society.

Book excerpt: "Don Juan" is an epic poem written by Lord Byron, published in several parts between 1819 and 1824. The poem is a satirical take on the legendary figure of Don Juan, a seductive and promiscuous character from Spanish literature. Byron's "Don Juan" follows the adventures of the titular character as he travels across Europe and encounters a variety of characters, including nobles, poets, and politicians. The poem is notable for its witty and often irreverent tone, as well as its exploration of themes like love, sex, politics, and religion. Throughout the poem, Byron pokes fun at the conventions of romance and chivalry, and portrays Don Juan as a figure who is at once charming and flawed. Despite his many dalliances, Don Juan is often shown as a sympathetic and likeable character, who is capable of genuine feeling and emotion.

Book excerpt: First published in 1819, "Don Juan" is often acknowledged as one of Lord Byron's greatest poetic works. An epic poem, comprised of seventeen cantos that Byron continued to work on and expand until his death, "Don Juan" follows the adventures of the famous Spanish libertine and reflects upon many of the romantic and personal experiences that are universal to all mankind. From a forbidden love affair in Spain, to exile in Italy, from being shipwrecked in Greece, to being kept in slavery in Russia, Don Juan's adventures provide Byron with an exquisite framework of high drama to discuss, and often mock, Western societies. Full of coarse humor and extreme satire, Byron's poem was instantly famous and controversial upon its first publication. Byron turns many of the classic aspects of Don Juan's story on their head, making the famous womanizer instead into someone easily seduced and manipulated by women. Interwoven in this innovative work are Byron's thoughts on such topics as social convention, war, and human nature, with a surprising vindication of natural man's gracious and ignoble impulses. "Don Juan" endures as an entertaining, elaborate, and memorable poetic criticism of man's many foibles. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.

Book excerpt: When Lord Byron published the first two cantos of Don Juan in 1819, he told his publisher that he didn't want to get either of them into any trouble. But the fact that he published these cantos anonymously shows that ol' Byron knew people weren't going to react all that well. That's because Don Juan is chockfull of adultery from its very first stanzas. Now, it's true that other writers in Byron's time would have portrayed adultery in their works. The difference is that they would have brutally punished the hero or heroine for committing such sins. Byron, on the other hand, just makes fun of adultery and portrays it in a humorous way.Our hero, Don Juan, grows up with two spoiling and flawed parents, who shield him from all knowledge of sex. This plan backfires when Don hits puberty and starts feeling urges he never felt before. These urges take him into the arms of a married woman named Julia. But Julia's husband finds out about the affair and Don Juan has to leave Spain. The rest of the book tells us about all the wacky and sexy adventures he has afterward.

As a young man he is precocious sexually, and has an affair with a friend of his mother. The husband finds out, and Don Juan is sent away to Cadiz. On the way, he is shipwrecked, survives, and meets the daughter of a pirate, whose men sell Don Juan as a slave. A young woman who is a member of a Sultan's harem, sees that this slave is purchased. She disguises him as a girl and sneaks him into her chambers. Don Juan escapes, joins the Russian army, and rescues a Muslim girl named Leila. Don Juan meets Catherine the Great, who asks him to join her court. Don Juan becomes sick, is sent to England, where he finds someone to watch over the young girl, Leila. Next, a few adventures involving the artistocracy of Britain ensue. The poem ends with Canto XVII. Byron was a rapid as well as a voluminous writer. Nevertheless, the composition of his great poem, Don Juan, was coextensive with a major part of his poetical life. He began the first canto of Don Juan in late 1818, and he was still at work on a seventeenth canto in early 1823. The poem was issued in parts, with intervals of unequal duration. Interruptions in the composition and publication of Don Juan were due to the disapproval and discouragement of friends as well as the publisher's hesitation and procrastination. Canto I. was written in September 1818; Canto II. in December-January, 1818-1819. Both were published on 15 July 1819. Cantos III. and IV. were written in the winter of 1819-1820; Canto V., after an interval of nine months, in October-November 1820, but the publication of Cantos III., IV., V. was delayed till 8 August 1821. In June 1822, Byron began to work at a sixth, and by the end of March 1823, he had completed a sixteenth canto. But the publication of these later cantos, which had been declined by John Murray, and was finally entrusted to John Hunt, was spread over a period of several months. Cantos VI., VII., VIII., with a Preface, were published on 15 July; Cantos IX., X., XI on 29 August; Cantos XII., XIII., XIV., on 17 December 1823; Cantos XV., XVI. on 26 March 1824.
