Description

1883 Percy SHELLEY Poetical Works FAMOUS English Poems Mary Shelley Edits

Percy Bysshe Shelley was a 19th-century English poet who is, unfortunately, best-known through the fame gained by his wife Mary Shelley, author of Frankenstein. Mary Shelley edited his poetical works, which was first published in 1839, and included copious notes. According to St. Clair,

â€œMary Shelley brought [Percy] Shelley into the mainstream of the national cultureâ€¦The notes that Mary added are masterpieces of editing, adding so immeasurably to the readers understanding that nobody would now consider printing Shelleys poems without them.”

This 1883 edition of Shelleys poetical works includes his famed Prometheus Unbound.
