womanizer but as a man easily seduced by women. It is a variation
on the epic form. Byron himself called it Epic Satire. Modern
critics consider it Byron's masterpiece.When the first two cantos
were published anonymously in 1819, the poem was criticized for its
immoral content by the critics of the day despite its immense
popularity.

Don Juan is a satiric poem by Lord Byron, based on the legend of
Don Juan, which Byron reverses, portraying Juan not as a womanizer
but as someone easily seduced by women. It is a variation on the
epic form. Byron himself called it an "Epic Satire" (Don Juan, c.
xv, v. 790). Modern critics generally consider it Byron's
masterpiece, with a total of over sixteen thousand individual lines
of verse. Byron completed 16 cantos, leaving an unfinished 17th
canto before his death in 1824. Byron claimed he had no ideas in
his mind as to what would happen in subsequent cantos as he wrote
his work.When the first two cantos were published anonymously in
1819, the poem was criticized for its 'immoral content', though it
was also immensely popular. (wikipedia.org)

Manfred, a Faustian noble, is tortured by guilt over the death of
his beloved, Astarte. He uses his mastery of language and
spell-casting to summon seven spirits, from whom he seeks
forgetfulness. The spirits are unable to control the past and thus
cannot grant Manfred's plea.
