Shelley's Visions of Death
This book provides the first modern, in-depth analysis of Percy Bysshe Shelley’s engagement with the phenomenon of death.

Shelley’s Visions of Death stresses the seldom-appreciated fact that death was one of Shelley’s most enduring preoccupations, and also demonstrates the poet’s power to imagine, with startling variety, that which lies beyond the boundaries of experience.
