‘These transient meetings’
View through CrossRef
In Alastor and Laon and Cythna, Shelley translates his ‘feelings and opinions’ into poetry that draws strongly on his personal experiences without resorting to crude confession. Reading Shelley’s letter to Thomas Jefferson Hogg at the end of August 1815 in the light of Alastor, and Shelley’s letter to Mary Godwin on 28 October 1814 in the context of Laon and Cythna, this chapter traces how the pressure of biography, the role of the poet, and how the letters might inform the poetry, become vitally important to Alastor and Laon and Cythna as Shelley seeks to refigure his life in his poetry.
