Lord Byron's poem Don Juan narrates the tale of a young man named Don Juan who, rather than being a conventional epic hero, makes unanticipated mistakes in life. The action resumes in Canto II with Juan embarking on a sea expedition that soon becomes perilous. Byron mocks society's ideals of heroes and romance in a lighthearted and slightly satirical tone, presenting us with a protagonist who is far less courageous and far more naive. Byron used comedy in this canto to examine issues such as the difference between innocence and experience, the true meaning of heroism, and how individuals cope with life's uncertainties.
