Description
Percy Shelley for Our Times provides a comprehensive reassessment of the Romantic poet’s enduring relevance in the twenty-first century. Through careful textual analysis and historical contextualization, Miranda and Singer reveal how Shelley’s radical vision speaks to contemporary issues including social justice, ecological crisis, and artistic freedom.
This collection of essays demonstrates that Shelley was far more than a historical figure confined to the nineteenth century. His exploration of power, individual liberty, and humanity’s relationship with nature offers crucial insights for modern readers grappling with technological change, political upheaval, and environmental degradation. The authors show how Shelley’s interdisciplinary approach to literature, philosophy, and political theory provides a valuable model for contemporary scholarship and activism.
Essential for scholars of Romanticism, literary criticism, and cultural studies, this volume establishes Shelley as an indispensable voice for understanding our current historical moment.
