Summary "The Real Shelley: New Views of the Poet's Life, Vol. 2" by John Cordy Jeaffreson is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This volume aims to explore the life of the famous poet Percy Bysshe Shelley, shedding light on his relationships, particularly with significant figures such as William Godwin and Mary Wollstonecraft. It delves into the complexities and events that shaped Shelley's experiences in a turbulent socio-political landscape. At the start of this second volume, Jeaffreson critiques inaccuracies found in previous biographies of Shelley, particularly those by Kegan Paul, as he introduces readers to William Godwin's life and his association with Shelley. Through a detailed examination of Godwin's upbringing, literary career, and personal relationships—including his problematic marriages—the author establishes a backdrop for understanding Shelley’s interactions and the influences that shaped his poetic output. The narrative sets the stage for a deeper exploration of Mary Wollstonecraft's tumultuous life and relationship with Godwin, hinting at the broader themes of love, social expectations, and the impact of revolutionary ideals on personal lives.
