The Complete Poetical Works Of Percy Bysshe Shelley
Edited by Thomas Hutchinson
Published by Humphrey Milford Oxford University Press: London 1921

" Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792 - 1822) was an English writer who is considered as one of the major English Romantic poets. A radical in his poetry as well as in his political and social views, Shelley did not achieve fame during his lifetime, but recognition of his achievements in poetry grew steadily following his death, and he became an important influence on subsequent generations of poets, including Robert Browning, Algernon Charles Swinburne, Thomas Hardy, and W. B. Yeats. American literary critic Harold Bloom describes him as "a superb craftsman, a lyric poet without rival, and surely one of the most advanced sceptical intellects ever to write a poem."
