Percy Bysshe Shelley was one of the leading English Romantics and is critically regarded among the finest lyric poets in the English language. His major works include the long visionary poems Prometheus Unbound and Adonais, an elegy on the death of John Keats. His shorter, classic verses include Ozymandias, To a Skylark, Mont Blanc, and Ode to the West Wind. This comprehensive and informative new edition collects his best poetry and prose, revealing how his writings weave together the political, personal, visionary, and idealistic.
Rezension:
"One can only marvel at the amount of editorial work that has gone into this volume There is a world of difference between having to read a poet as part of your studies and picking one up for pleasure later, which is why this is such an important and definitive edition. It will suit both the scholar and the general reader While today the flame of progressive thought is flickering in the gales of intolerance and brute ignorance, we need Shelley s example, and his exemplary anger, all the more."
