Excerpt from Shelley's Principles: Has Time Refuted or Confirmed Them?
The following essay on Shelley's Principles, which has been read, under a different title, at one of the Shelley Society's meetings, was indirectly the outcome of a friendly challenge from Professor Dowden, to the effect that he, as a lover of Shelley, should like to see someone who places him in the first rank of poets, other than lyrical, show where he is original in his body of thought.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complex ideas and ideals of the renowned poet Percy Shelley. The author argues that Shelley's principles were more insightful and forward-thinking than his contemporaries gave him credit for. By examining his writings on religion, morality, politics, and social justice, the book reveals that Shelley was a visionary who saw a future where equality and love prevailed. The author shows how Shelley's ideas were not merely utopian dreams but were rooted in a deep understanding of the human condition and the potential for social progress. This book challenges the traditional view of Shelley as a naive idealist and instead presents him as a profound thinker whose ideas remain relevant and inspiring today.
