Description
An outstandingly fine collection of essays. One is impressed not just by the excellence of the individual contributions but by the uniformly high level of writing and thinking. The traditional, 'aesthetic' approach to Shelley is eschewed, with the emphasis very much on Shelley the political and social thinker. -- Stuart M. Sperry, Indiana University
