Shelley's Broken World is a provocative and profound reassessment
of Shelley's poetic art and thought. Bysshe Inigo Coffey returns to
a peculiarity of Shelley's expressive repertoire first noticed by
his Victorian readers and editors: his innovatory use of pauses,
which registered as irregularities in ears untuned to his
innovations. But his pauses are more than a quirk; various
intermittences are at the centre of Shelley's artistry and his
thought. This book aims to transform the philosophical, scientific,
and aesthetic contexts in which Shelley is positioned. It offers a
ground-breaking analysis of his reading, and is the first study to
refer to and include images of the unpublished 'Marlow List', a
record of the books Shelley left behind him on his departure for
Italy in 1818. Shelley's prosody grew to articulate his sense that
actuality is experienced as ruptured and fractured with gaps and
limit-points. He shows us the weakness of the actual. As we
approach the bicentenary of the poet's death, Shelley's Broken
World provides an exciting new beginning for the study of a major
Romantic poet, the history of materialism, and prosody.
