Opis: Selections From the Poems of Percy Bysshe Shelley (Classic Reprint) - Shelley Percy Bysshe

Excerpt from Selections From the Poems of Percy Bysshe Shelley

The incomparable beauty and abundance of Shelley's poetry make the task of selection from it, and especially from the longer poems and odes, one of unusual difficulty. The passages included in this volume are, so far as possible, complete in themselves, and it is hoped that they will provide the student with some idea of the great variety and scope of the poet's work and form an introduction to more thorough study. The notes are intended to supply a commentary upon the circumstances of the various poems and to link the selections, which are arranged chronologically, together; while they offer an explanation of the more difficult passages and illustrate the literary and other allusions of which Shelley's verse is full. The editor desires to thank his wife for aid and advice in the task of selection, as in the companion volume Selections from Keats.
