The Narrator as Gossip of Byron's Don Juan
type: CreativeWork
description: The purpose of this dissertation is to study the narrator as gossip in Bon Juan. In a short first chapter, I present the composite character of the narrator giving appropriate illustrations. I prepare for the second chapter by pointing up the importance of the narrator as gossip and by showing the suit­ability of the stanza form of Bon Juan. In the second chapter of the dissertation I study the narrator as gossip in Canto I of Bon Juan, I use the third chapter, by way of conclusion, to consider significant development of the gossip in the subsequent cantos.
