Neglected Shelley

Zusatztext 'These erudite and critically attentive essays convince us of the lasting significance of Shelley's less familiar poetical and prose works! as much as they render unfamiliar the better known passages and ideas in Shelley's poetry and prose. With assured critical purpose! the collection challenges and revises our preconceptions about Shelley's attitudes towards antiquity! European culture! the gothic! nationhood! and ethnicity! as well as his practices as a poet and commitment to the medium of prose. The Neglected Shelley signals vitally innovative directions in the field of Shelley studies for years to come.' -Mark Sandy! Durham University! UK'All in all! these essays comprise an impressive range of material and testament to the extraordinary breadth of Shelley's achievement as a writer. And without doubt! these innovative! carefully-researched essays succeed in the editors' aim of bringing within the pale of Shelley studies neglected aspects of his work and of illuminating unfamiliar aspects of ostensibly well-known or canonical pieces.' - Cian Duffy! Copenhagen University! European Romantic Review! 27:4 Informationen zum Autor Alan M. Weinberg is Emeritus Professor at the University of South Africa, RSA, and Timothy Webb is Senior Research Fellow and Emeritus Professor at the University of Bristol, UK. Klappentext Building on the work begun in Weinberg and Webb's 2009 collection, The Unfamiliar Shelley, this new collection takes up further work by Percy Bysshe Shelley that has received inadequate critical attention. The Neglected Shelley shows that even the poet's apparently slighter works are important in their own right and are richly instructive as expressions of Shelley's developing art of composition and diverse interests throughout his career.
