このコンテンツについて

In the final four Cantos of his mock epic, completed just a year before his untimely death at 36 in Messolonghi, Greece, where he fought for the nationalists against the Ottoman Empire, Lord Byron weaves a rich tapestry of satire and intrigue. Now back in England, Juan is drawn into the autumn festivities of a hunting party hosted by Lord Henry and Lady Adeline Amundeville. Here, he encounters the enigmatic Byronic heroine, Aurora Raby, and is visited by a ghost with a rather unusual charm. While this sets the stage, Byrons true focus lies in a sharp critique of faith, the ineptitude of the English aristocracy, the absurdity of English pastimes, and the sycophantic behavior of elected officials towards their middle-class constituents. Through a lens of revelry—complete with drinks, banquets, beautiful women, and bishops—Byron unleashes his wit on critics and the specter of tyranny that looms large.Copyright Legends & Fairy Tales アート 政治・政府 政治学 文学史・文学批評
