After deciding that Albanians are noble savages, the central figure of this work falls in love with the German woman Julia and dies in Rome.
The poet used intentionally archaic language in the first two cantos of this work as a tribute to Edmund Spenser. The title character ambles into the land of Cintra while taking a horseback journey through Portugal, and muses on cruelty while watching a bullfight in Spain. After deciding that Albanians are noble savages, the central figure of this work falls in love with the German woman Julia and dies in Rome. The second half of this work nearly ignores the title figure, at first setting him aside for an extended description of the sorry present state of Greek culture, and then admitting that the ruse of an authorial stand-in had run its course. For 10 points, name this narrative poem which introduced a certain type of "hero," a travelogue of a Romantic youth in Europe by Lord Byron.
