BEING SHELLEY（ISBN=9780307280527） fb2 pdf azw3 网盘 rtf 免费 下载 txt

　　From Ann Wroe, a biographer of the first rank, comes a

startlingly original look at one of the greatest poets in the

Western tradition.

Being Shelley aims to turn the poet's life inside out: rather

than tracing the external events of his life, she tracks the inner

journey of a spirit struggling to create. In her quest to

understand the radically unconventional Shelley, Wroe pursues the

questions that consumed the poet himself. Shelley sought to free

and empower the entire human race; his revolution was meant to

shatter illusions, shock men and women with new visions, find true

love and liberty—and take everyone with him. Now, for the first

time, this passionate quest is put at the center of his life. The

result is a Shelley who has never been seen in biography

before.
