Percy Bysshe Shelley (2)

Publication Date: April 23, 2015

Chapter: English Literature During The Romantic Period

Percy Bysshe Shelley was generous with his money to a fault. He went bankrupt not due to any sort of extravagance (though he was certainly accustomed to a particular lifestyle), but because he supported his elders. Among those under Percy's financial care was William Godwin, Mary's father. Godwin didn't particularly like Percy in the beginning, but I suppose the money helped grease the skids.

FUN FACT: Godwin didn't like Percy to start with because Percy swept 16-year-old Mary off on a six-week, whirlwind trip of Europe that left them all homesick and destitute. That's actually a pretty good reason to hate someone.

Author: Percy Bysshe Shelley • Year: 1792 to 1822 • Info: Wikipedia
