CASSELL & COMPANY, Limited LONDOX, PARIS, NEIV YORK £ MELBOURNE. 1888. INTEODUCTION. Percy Bysshe, eldest son of Timothy Shelley, was born at Field Place, a mile from the village of Warnham, in Sussex, on the 4th of August, 1792. He was drowned on the 8th of July, 1822, within a month of the age of thirty. He was named Bysshe after his grandfather, Bysshe Shelley, who had been made a baronet in 1806 for his fidelity to the Whigs, and who had enriched himself by marriages and by economies ; for though he was said to have spent eighty thousand pounds in building Castle Goring, he lived in a cottage at Horsham with a single servant, and went in a round frock to seek social inter- course in the tap-room of the "Swan." Bysshe Shelley cared little for his eldest son Timothy, Avho did not succeed to the baronetcy until the death of Sir Bysshe in 1815, when the age of the poet, who stood next in suc- cession, was twenty -three. Shelley was in childhood, youth, and manhood, sensi- tive and emotional. As a child at Field Place he was leader in the sports of four younger sisters, and enter- tained them with the playfulness of a wild fancy. He tried his fancy also on father and mother, sometimes astonishing them with stories of where he had been and what he had done and seen, but done and seen only in his little world of dreams. After four years of early teaching under the Rev. Mr. Edwards at Warnham, Shelley was sent to a school of 6 INTRODUCTION. about sixty boys at Isleworth, near Brentford ; Sion House Academy, under Dr. G-reenlaw, an old Scotch divine. There he found among the schoolboys his cousin, Thomas Medwin, who has told how Shelley resented the tyrannies of boy-life in the schools that were.

One of the popular trends of Frankenstein scholarship centers on analyzing anxieties of motherhood in the text. This paper utilizes this scholarship to examine a set of analogous anxieties present in The Last Man, set against an apocalyptic future where there is no next generation. This paper uses a combination of feminist theory, psychoanalysis, and new historicism to examine the anxieties surrounding motherhood and children in The Last Man. I begin by analyzing the figures of the mother and the child in the novel before analyzing the different anxieties present both in literal motherhood and then in metaphorical reproduction through technology, literature, and companionship in animals.

Shelley’s Poem Ozymandias in Russian Translations Dmitry Nikolayevich Zhatkin †*and Anna Anatolyevna RyabovaÌ Abstract The article presents a comparative analysis of Russian translations of P.B.Shelley’s poem Ozymandias (1817), carried out by Ch. Vetrinsky, A.P. Barykova, K.D. Balmont, N. Minsky, V.Ya. Bryusov in 1890 – 1916. These translations fully reflect the peculiarities of the social and political, cultural and literary life in Russia of the late 19th – early 20th Centuries, namely weakening of the political system, growing of interest to the culture of Ancient Egypt, and strengthening of Neoromanticism in opposition to Naturalism in literature. In the process of the analysis, we used H. Smith’s sonnet Ozymandias, P.B. Shelley’s sonnet Ozymandias and its five Russian translations. The methods of historical poetics of A.N. Veselovsky, V.M. Zhirmunsky and provisions of the linguistic theory of translation of A.V. Fedorov were used. The article will be interesting for those studying literature, languages, philology. Keywords: P.B.

  • Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792 – 1822)
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792 – 1822) Biography: ercy Bysshe Shelley, (born Aug. 4, 1792, Field Place, near Horsham, Sussex, Eng.— died July 8, 1822, at sea off Livorno, Tuscany [Italy]), English Romantic poet whose P passionate search for personal love and social justice was gradually channeled from overt actions into poems that rank with the greatest in the English language. Shelley was the heir to rich estates acquired by his grandfather, Bysshe (pronounced “Bish”) Shelley. Timothy Shelley, the poet’s father, was a weak, conventional man who was caught between an overbearing father and a rebellious son. The young Shelley was educated at Syon House Academy (1802–04) and then at Eton (1804–10), where he resisted physical and mental bullying by indulging in imaginative escapism and literary pranks. Between the spring of 1810 and that of 1811, he published two Gothic novels and two volumes of juvenile verse. In the fall of 1810 Shelley entered University College, Oxford, where he enlisted his fellow student Thomas Jefferson Hogg as a disciple. But in March 1811, University College expelled both Shelley and Hogg for refusing to admit Shelley’s authorship of The Necessity of Atheism. Hogg submitted to his family, but Shelley refused to apologize to his. 210101 Bibliotheca Alexandrina-Library Sector Compiled by Mahmoud Keshk Late in August 1811, Shelley eloped with Harriet Westbrook, the younger daughter of a London tavern owner; by marrying her, he betrayed the acquisitive plans of his grandfather and father, who tried to starve him into submission but only drove the strong-willed youth to rebel against the established order.

  • Shelley in the Transition to Russian Symbolism
    SHELLEY IN THE TRANSITION TO RUSSIAN SYMBOLISM: THREE VERSIONS OF ‘OZYMANDIAS’ David N. Wells I Shelley is a particularly significant figure in the early development of Russian Symbolism because of the high degree of critical attention he received in the 1880s and 1890s when Symbolism was rising as a literary force in Russia, and because of the number and quality of his translators. This article examines three different translations of Shelley’s sonnet ‘Ozymandias’ from the period. Taken together, they show that the English poet could be interpreted in different ways in order to support radically different aesthetic ideas, and to reflect both the views of the literary establishment and those of the emerging Symbolist movement. At the same time the example of Shelley confirms a persistent general truth about literary history: that the literary past is constantly recreated in terms of the present, and that a shared culture can be used to promote a changing view of the world as well as to reinforce the status quo. The advent of Symbolism as a literary movement in Russian literature is sometimes seen as a revolution in which a tide of individualism, prompted by a crisis of faith at home, and combined with a new sense of form drawing on French models, replaced almost overnight the positivist and utilitarian traditions of the 1870s and 1880s with their emphasis on social responsibility and their more conservative approach to metre, rhyme and poetic style.1 And indeed three landmark literary events marking the advent of Symbolism in Russia occurred in the pivotal year of 1892 – the publication of Zinaida Vengerova’s groundbreaking article on the French Symbolist poets in Severnyi vestnik, the appearance of 1 Ronald E.

  • An Ecocritical Exploration of the Romantic Movement
    Can Shelley help us save the world? An ecocritical exploration of the romantic movement. The foundations upon which the romantic movement was built fundamentally and wholeheartedly oppose mankind’s wanton destruction of the Earth. A central tenet of romantic poetry is a profound reverence for nature, and in none is this veneration and respect so clear as in the works of Percy Bysshe Shelley. What elevates Shelley above his romantic peers is his dynamic and erratic style, his rejection of convention and his individuality of thought - his poems are not simple appraisals of natural beauty, they also burst with irrepressible vivacity and many are testaments to his rebellious and unapologetically forward thinking mind. A disdain for corruption, greed and self absorption, a distrust of powerful societal forces, a refusal to conform, and a near religious worship of nature are powerfully expressed in his poetry, and we truly should ‘be listening now as he listened then.’ as we attempt to reverse the effects of the climate crisis. The ways in which Shelley interpreted the principles of the romantic movement were fascinating, and significantly more revolutionary than many of his contemporary peers. Of these central tenets, several relate almost prophetically to the current climate crisis - one such example being compassion for wildlife in all forms. Shelley converted to vegetarianism in 1813¹, again demonstrating his progressive and non conformist tendencies, as meat was an essential component of almost all diets except in some South Asian countries at the time. In today’s era of intensive farming, lines such as ‘never again may blood of bird or beast/Stain with its venomous stream a human feast'² are particularly pertinent.
