George Gordon Noel Byron

George Gordon Byron was born in London on January 22, 1788. His parents were Captain John "Mad Jack" Byron and Catherine Gordon. He was first educated at the Harrow School and then on to the University of Cambridge. In 1798, after the death of his great uncle William, the 5th Baron Byron, he took the title and the states that his uncle passed on to him. In 1808, Byron received a masters degree at Cambridge. In 1812, he received his first fame for his first two cantos of Childe Harold's Pilgrimage. In 1815, he married Anna Isabella Milbanke who gave birth to a daughter, Ada. In 1816, after his wife separated him and society had ostracized him, he left England for good. He traveled to Geneva, Venice and finally settled in Pisa. In 1822, he started the journal The Liberal with poets Percy Bysshe Shelley and Leigh Hunt. By 1823, he had completed perhaps his greatest work in Don Juan. In 1823, on word of the Greek's revolt against Turkish rule, he joined the Greek insurance at Miss!

Drabble, Margaret. ed. The Oxford Companion to English Literature.

Ranked with Shelley and Keats as one of the great Romantic poets, Byron became famous throughout Europe as the embodiment of romanticism. His good looks, his lameness, and his flamboyant lifestyle all contributed to the formation of the Byronic legend. By the mid-20th cent. his reputation as a poet had been eclipsed by growing critical recognition of his talents as a wit and satirist (Eisler 16).

Even more general attributes of this poem and its characters reflect details from the authors own life. Juan is able to survive shipwreck because he could swim. Byron was also known as an exceptionally strong swimmer. Don Juan embarks on a grand adventure that includes travels very similar to Byrons own. He has a number of sexual conquests during his journey, as did the randy author. Even the naivet of young Juan is strikingly similar to the shy young George Gordon.

Parisina The Deformed Transformed

In stanza 61 of Canto I Donna Julia is described with a mixture of affection and sarcasm. Bright with intelligence, and fair and smoother stature tall-I hate a dumpy woman. Byron begins with a fairly conventional description of a pretty girl but ends the stanza with what seems to be a truly backhanded compliment.
