Percy Bysshe Shelley: Authoriality and Authoritarian Romanticism

By GEORGE EWANE NGIDE

Percy Bysshe Shelley: Authoriality and Authoritarian Romanticism captures the biographical implications of Percy Bysshe Shelley that informed his authoritative, somewhat radical Romanticism vision. Shelley led a life of gruesome experiences that inflicted excruciating pain and misery on him. These life experiences influenced his world view, reactivated and shaped his imagination, and provided him with a profound vision of life, one which led him to crusade for a necessity of change in socio-political terms and in the perception of the ideal reality in the universe. In other words, Percy Bysshe Shelley frowns at and criticises socio-political behaviours and habits that inhibit personal human progress and universal wellbeing. It is a scathing indictment of socio-political behaviours that have made man lose the original paradise and a clarion call for a return to the past human glory, a kind of New Jerusalem or Everlasting Spring.
