A major new study of Percy Shelley's intellectual life and poetic
career, Shelley and the Revolutionary Sublime identifies Shelley's
fascination with sublime natural phenomena as a key element in his
understanding of the way ideas like 'nature' and 'imagination'
informed the social and political structures of the Romantic
period. Offering a genuinely fresh set of perspectives on Shelley's
texts and contexts, Cian Duffy argues that Shelley's engagement
with the British and French discourse on the sublime had a profound
influence on his writing about political change in that age of
revolutionary crisis. Examining Shelley's extensive use of sublime
imagery and metaphor, Duffy offers not only a substantial
reassessment of Shelley's work but also a significant re-appraisal
of the role of the sublime in the cultural history of Britain
during the Romantic period.
