Percy Bysshe Shelley poem ‘England in 1819’ line by line analysis & context | Romanticism poetry

Описание: Line by line analysis of Percy Bysshe Shelley’s overtly political poem ‘England in 1819’, which proclaims Shelley’s indignation at the oppression & tyranny, as Shelley saw it, of royalty (both the king & princes), the rulers, the army, the laws, religion, & PB Shelley’s hope for future revolution. The lecture starts by outlining the crucial historical context—the Peterloo Massacre of 16 August 1819 (where radical orator Henry Hunt protested against the government, including the Corn Laws, & argued for universal suffrage)—& then provides a line-by-line summary, explanation, & literary analysis of the sonnet. P B Shelley was a central figure in Romanticism, & his poetry, including ‘England in 1819’, embodied the frustrations at the social, economic, & political problems present in the Regency period.
