Shelley is a biography written by Sydney Waterlow that explores the life of the famous Romantic poet, Percy Bysshe Shelley. The book delves into Shelley's childhood, his rebellious nature, and his tumultuous relationships with both his family and his lovers. It also examines his literary works, including his most famous poems such as Ozymandias and Prometheus Unbound. The biography provides insight into Shelley's political views and his involvement in radical movements of his time. Waterlow's book also explores Shelley's tragic death at the age of 29 and the impact he had on the literary world. Overall, Shelley offers a comprehensive look at the life and legacy of one of the most influential poets of the Romantic era.The true visionary is often a man of action, and Shelley was a very peculiar combination of the two. He was a dreamer, but he never dreamed merely for the sake of dreaming; he always rushed to translate his dreams into acts. The practical side of him was so strong that he might have been a great statesman or reformer, had not his imagination, stimulated by a torrential fluency of language, overborne his will.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
