El corsario es, ante todo, un poema autobiográfico que narra las aventuras de un tal Conrado, un corsario rechazado por la sociedad -no así por las mujeres- debido a su comportamiento escandaloso. Byron fue uno de los poetas que gozó en vida de más popularidad. Su existencia se enlazó con la historia política europea de un cuarto de siglo, y llegó a eclipsar en su patria y en su época la gloria de otros poetas. Byron fue un genial poeta romántico, que con sus obras y aun con su misma vida legendaria y anómala, era el prototipo del poeta romántico, hasta el extremo de asumir en él toda la escuela romántica que se designó con el nombre de byronismo. – Summary by Phileas Fogg
