Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoir of Percy Bysshe Shelley: With New Preface The ensuing Memoir was written in 1869, a date when the materials for constructing a Life of Shelley were sparse, slender, and confused, in no small degree: it was first published in 1870. When the edition of Shelley´s Poems was about to be reissued, which was done at the beginning of 1878, I revised the Memoir, taking into account any additional materials then accessible. I believe that, both in 1870 and in 1878, the Memoir was not behind the then level of knowledge on the subject. Since 1878 however many further particulars, and not a little controversy more or less warm, have accrued. I could not therefore feel satisfied without once again doing something to make the Memoir presentable to serious and well-grounded students of Shelley´s life and writings, and have once again gone carefully through my little narrative. As it is printed in stereotype, it has not been practicable to alter the actual words of the text; and the only expedient open to me has been to give a list of those passages or details which need rectification or extension. This is done in the items of reference which immediately ensue. I have written them with the utmost brevity consistent with clearness; and shall trust to the reader´s candour to distinguish between instances in which actual errors (most of them not avoidable at the time) are corrected, and instances in which the information supplied belongs to a date subsequent to 1877.
