Romanticism and male fantasy in Byron's Don Juan

"In July 1819 London was rocked by the appearance of Don Juan, an 'anonymous' poem by Lord Byron, Europe's most famous author. Over the next five years Byron battled with censors and accusations of immorality to get his greatest poem published. The adventures of Don Juan are the basis for this irreverent satire of Regency society and of the male fantasies that structured public culture in the aftermath of the French Revolution. Charles Donelan looks at Byron's masterpiece as a successful combination of serious literary ambition and outrageous pop culture references."--BOOK JACKET.
