The book Percy Bysshe Shelley by John Addington Symonds is a comprehensive biography of the famous English Romantic poet. The book delves into Shelley's life, starting from his childhood and tracing his journey as a poet, writer, and political activist. The author provides a detailed account of Shelley's personal life, including his relationships with his family, friends, and romantic partners. The book also explores Shelley's literary works, analyzing his poetry and prose in detail and discussing the themes and ideas that he explored in his writing. The author provides insights into Shelley's political views and his involvement in the radical movements of his time. The book is written in a scholarly style and is based on extensive research, including primary sources such as letters and manuscripts. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Shelley's life and works, as well as for students and scholars of English literature and Romanticism.A glimpse into the cottage at Great Marlow is afforded by a careless sentence of Leigh Hunt's. He used to sit in a study adorned with casts, as large as life, of the Vatican Apollo and the celestial Venus. Fancy Shelley with his bright eyes and elf-locks in a tiny, low-roofed room, correcting proofs of Laon and Cythna, between the Apollo of the Belvedere and Venus de' Medici, life-sized, and as crude as casts by Shout could make them!This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
