The Complete Poems of Percy Bysshe Shelley Summary
|
Most of Percy Bysshe Shelley's poetry reveals his philosophy, a combination of belief in the power of human love and reason, and faith in the progress and perfectibility of mankind. His lyric poems are superb in their beauty, grandeur, and mastery of language. He is also appreciated for his wit, his gifts as a satirist, and his influence as a social and political thinker. Shelley endures today as the great Promethean bard of the High Romantic period who is best remembered for extolling the sublime and affirming the possibility of transcendence.
