How to evaluate Don Juan?

Don Juan is a poetic novel and a satirical poem reflecting the real life in Europe at that time. Described the adventure story of a young Spanish aristocrat who traveled to European countries at the end of18th century. The poet boldly and creatively used the language of the British people to describe the hypocritical and conservative feudal monarchy of Spain, where Don Juan grew up, and described a series of wonderful scenes and fragments, such as maritime distress, the horror of hunger, pastoral love, slave market, the forbidden palace of the Turkish emperor, cruel war, the court of the Russian queen, the upper class of London and so on. It is through the protagonist's different experiences in these places that poetry reproduces the social and historical life of Europe at that time in many ways. At the same time, the poet also pointed the satirical finger at the reactionary forces in Europe, such as the "Holy Alliance", bitterly satirized the actions of those tyrants, mercilessly unveiled the mysterious veil hanging over the heads of royal families in various countries, and exposed their sins, shamelessness and debauchery naked to readers, thus having great shock. On the one hand, it also shows the poet's own radical attitude and distinct position.

The image of Don Juan also left a deep impression on readers. This image continues the author's consistent style of "Byronic hero", which has both an innate shocking rebellious spirit and an infinite yearning for freedom, so this long poem has become a work with strong individualistic color. Don Juan's experience is similar to the author's own, and it is not difficult for us to understand the poet's personal emotional characteristics and personality characteristics from this character.

Byron, like his poetry friend Shelley, is an outstanding revolutionary romantic poet. Although Byron seldom talks about imagination, it doesn't mean that he lacks imagination. His works mainly win with emotion, and his feelings are very rich and powerful.
