Byron was an outstanding English romantic poet in the early19th century. He was born in a declining aristocratic family in Renton, England. /kloc-began to write poetry in 0/805, when I was studying at Cambridge University. 1807 Byron published his first book of poetry, Leisure Time. 1809 graduated from university, got a hereditary seat in the House of Lords, and published his second book of poetry, English Poets and Scottish Critics, which aroused strong repercussions. From 1809 to181year, he traveled to Portugal, Spain, Albania, Greece and Turkey. 18 12, Byron wrote a poetic travel note "childe? The first and second chapters of Harold's Travels became famous, and then they were attacked by the upper class because of the marriage problem. Byron was forced to leave England in April of 18 16. I lived in Switzerland at first, and 18 17 went to Italy. He first took part in the charcoal-burning revolution, and then went to Greece to participate in the liberation struggle of the Greek people against Turkey. 1824, Byron died of getting wet in the March.

Byron wrote a variety of poems and made outstanding achievements. His lyric poems include When We Are Parting, The Maiden of Athens, She Walking in Beautiful Glory, etc. Narrative poems include "Childe? Travels of Hallor, Don Juan, Prisoner of Hilong, Pagan, Bride of Abydos, Pirates, Laila, The Surrounding of Corinth, Barcina, etc. Oriental narrative poems have created a number of "Byronic heroes" images. Drama poems include Manfred and Cain, and political satires include Fantasy of Trial and Bronze Century.

Don Juan, a long narrative poem, is Byron's masterpiece, one of the best literary works in The Romantic Period, England, and also one of Byron's masterpieces. Don Juan satirizes and criticizes the darkness of European politics at the end of 18 and the hypocrisy and conservatism of upper-class life at the beginning of 2009 through the roaming adventures of don Juan, a young Spanish aristocrat, and the emotional comments of the lyric hero. ?

Don Juan, it is said that there is a real person in history. It is said that he is the companion of the devil, a shameless teenager and a sinner in hell.

In Byron's works, Don Juan became an ordinary aristocratic youth who fled his hometown of Spain because of the love storm and fell in love with the daughter of a robber on the Greek island. Later, Don Juan was shipwrecked in Constantinople. Now Delacroix is hidden in the slave market of the Louvre Art Museum in Paris and sold to the harem of the Sultan. He escaped from here and took part in the Russian siege of Ismail in 1790. Because of his active fighting, he was sent to England as a special envoy by the Queen of Russia.

Through the protagonist's strange and complicated experience, the long poem describes the social life in Europe extensively, criticizes hypocrisy, cruelty and autocracy, and praises pure love, justice, courage and heroism for freedom. The composition of long poems, with stories, narratives and landscapes, is mixed with the poet's comments, sighs, thoughts, rich in content and art, representing the highest achievement of English poetry in19th century.

Don Juan is a long poem with a broad background, which shows the broad social and political picture of Europe during the French bourgeois revolution in the early19th century. Through Don Juan's experience, it profoundly exposed the tyranny and hypocrisy of feudal autocracy, and showed a firm and thorough hatred of autocracy.

Sorrow for Greece is an independent passage in Don Juan. Don Juan was in distress at sea and drifted to an island. He was rescued by Heidi, the daughter of the Greek pirate leader, and they fell in love and got married. At the wedding, the lyric hero imagined that there must be a bard singing on this occasion. So, in the name of a fake singer, he inserted a song "Sorrow for Greece".

Sorrow for Greece is a lyric poem. In this poem, the theme of patriotism is reflected through the comparison between ancient and modern times. The poet reviewed the brilliant achievements of the ancient Greek nation from the perspectives of "culture and education" and "Wushu". "Culture and education" refers to the Oracle of Apollo, the epic of Homer, the lyric poems of Sappho and Anacreon, and "Wu Dong" lists 300 Spartan warriors who fought against powerful enemies with their flesh and blood in Marathon, Salamis and Hot Springs. These famous examples show the glorious tradition of the Greek nation in bravely resisting aggression and defending independence and freedom.

In almost every poem, the poet narrates the culture, education or martial arts in the prosperous period of ancient Greece, and then turns to the humiliating situation of Greece. This inverted climax contrast has caused a strong gap between ancient and modern times, led emotions to thinking about reality, and played a clear direction and strengthened morale.

While reviewing the glorious tradition of the Greek nation, the poet constantly compares it with the humiliating reality of the ruined country and the broken mountains and rivers, and compares the heroism and patriotism of the ancient Greek people with the current state of mental numbness and sinking of the Greeks, so as to awaken the national pride of the Greek people and inspire their fighting spirit against alien rule. The emotion of "lamenting its misfortune and angering it" flowing between the lines contains ardent expectations and strengthens the incentive effect. The loneliness of "everyone is drunk, I wake up alone" revealed by the poet in the last section is not completely negative, but a mixture of blame and worry, which deepens the theme of patriotism as a whole. ?

Byron's "heroes" are all "lonely and desperate rebels" with the following spiritual characteristics: depression, loneliness, unruly and contempt for everything; Knowing that the result of resistance was failure, he still rebelled against society uncompromisingly in despair, and resistance often ended in tragedy. These characters all have Byron's own strong personality.

So Goethe said, "Don Juan is a work of genius, cynical to the point of despair, and gentle to the point of delicate and touching feelings ...".

Today, we are still looking forward to the emergence of Byronic heroes: looking forward to the spirit of uncompromising, looking forward to the passion of fighting, looking forward to worrying about the country and the people.
