Women : occidental and oriental in selected poems lord Byron

Abstract EN

This paper falls into two parts: the first part deals with Byron's early poems before he has left England forever.

In it, Byron reveals his own point of view towards the women he has come across they are physically attractive, yet some of them are spiritually corrupt, whereas the second part is his attempt to show his sincere and doubtless attitudes towards the oriental women as he tours over various eastern countries.

Byron has come to believe that the oriental woman, with her physical and spiritual beauty, is much more loyal to her lover than the western woman.
