Don Juan (poem) : ウィキペディア英語版
Don Juan (Byron)

''Don Juan'' (; see below) is a satiric poem〔(English 151-03 ''Byron's 'Don Juan' notes'' ), Gregg A. Hecimovich〕 by Lord Byron, based on the legend of Don Juan, which Byron reverses, portraying Juan not as a womaniser 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. xiv, st. 99). 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 criticised for its "immoral content", though it was also immensely popular.
==History==
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.
It has been said that the character of Donna Inez (Don Juan's mother) was a thinly veiled portrait of Byron's own wife, Annabella Milbanke (daughter of Sir Ralph Milbanke).
