First editions, complete in six volumes (Cantos I and II in one large-paper quarto volume: 10 3/4 x 8 inches 272 x 204 mm Cantos III-XVI in five octavo volumes: 8 1/8 x 5 1/8 inches 207 x 129 mm). When Juan was a child Julia showed affection for him but that was just normal and innocent.London: Printed by Thomas Davison, 1819-1821 Printed for John Hunt, 1823 Printed for John and H.L.

He never wanted people to know about his illegal affairs.
Alfonso never showed his jealousy because nobody likes a jealous person.Īlfonso cared about what people thought and he was cleaver and careful. Julia married Alfonso only because she had to. If a woman did something wrong and people find out about it, she would be tainted and blemished forever and also banished from society but if a man does the same thing or even worse, he could still be able to hold his head up high in society. They did not have the right to own a slave or even vote. Even when they were married they were not allowed to hold control of inherited wealth.
If they married someone then they were treated like property of their husbands and if they stayed single then their parents dictated every single thing she did with every single person.įor most part women were not allowed to stay single unless they were nuns or prostitutes. This poem constantly takes me back to the 1800s, because at that time women had no rights at all. He has all the Characteristics of a Byronic Hero.
