Prometheus Unbound - A Lyrical Drama in Four ActsPaperback, 18 July 2011

This is Percy Bysshe Shelley's 1920 lyrical drama in four acts, 'Prometheus Unbound'. It concerns the torture of Prometheus, the Greek mythological figure who defies the gods by giving fire to humanity. Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792 - 1822) was a significant English Romantic poet, widely considered to be one of the finest lyric poets in the English language. Other notable works by this author include: 'The Daemon of the World' (1816), 'Mont Blanc' (1816), and 'Original Poetry by Victor and Cazire' (1810). This volume is highly recommended for all lovers of the English language, and it would make for a worthy addition to any collection. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
