    1809.  Faced with the ensuing attacks and abuses, Byron wrote a long poem "English Poet and Scottish Critic" to respond to the attackers, but unexpectedly opened the prelude of positive romanticism against negative romanticism.  The long poem also made Byron first appear in the British poetry and literary world.

    One of the Demon Guardians - Shelley

    Percy Bysshe Shelley [(1792©¤1822), generally translated as Shelley, is a well-known British romantic poet and is considered to be one of the best English poets in history.  Engels called him a genius prophet.

    Shelley began to try writing poetry when he was 8 years old, during his years at Eton.  Shelley collaborated with his cousin Thomas on the poem "The Wandering Jew" and published the satirical novel "Zastrochi".

This phenomenon was very common in schools at that time, but Shelley did not endure it like ordinary freshmen.  He openly resisted.  And this rebellious personality burned up his short life like fire.

    At the age of 18, Shelley entered Oxford University.  Deeply influenced by the works of British free thinkers such as Hume and Godwin, Shelley habitually wrote pamphlets about his thoughts on God, politics and society, distributed them to strangers, and asked them for their opinions after reading them.  .

    1811.  Shelley was expelled from Oxford University after less than one year of enrollment for distributing "The Necessity of Atheism".  Shelley's father, a conformist country squire, asked Shelley to publicly declare that he had nothing to do with "The Necessity of Atheism". Shelley refused, and he was kicked out of the house.

    Shelley, who had been cut off from financial support, lived alone for a period of time with the help of his two sisters. During this period, he met Heliett Westbrook, his sister's classmate and the daughter of a small hotel owner.

    Driven by political fervor, Shelley spent the next year traveling throughout Britain, distributing his liberal pamphlets.  In November of the same year, he completed the long narrative poem "Queen Mab". This poem is rich in philosophy and criticizes the hypocrisy of religion and the inequality that exists between the feudal class and the working class.

    Shelley's marriage was used by his enemies as the best weapon to attack him from the beginning. When the romantic chivalry was cooled by reason, the more real side of his hasty marriage followed the two people.  The growth is beginning to show.

    Shelley had to admit that marriage did not save his wife, marriage just tied two people together to endure another kind of torture.

    Mentally and emotionally, the differences between the two people are getting bigger and bigger.  During this period, Shelley met Godwin's daughter Mary Godwin. They fell in love and traveled to the European continent together. Their ideals of love and marriage were so pure that even the harshest critics could not criticize them.  After Shelley's death, Mary edited and annotated the complete collection of his poems.

      In 1815, Shelley's grandfather passed away. According to the primogeniture law at that time, Shelley, who was financially very poor at the time, received an annuity, but he refused to enjoy it exclusively and shared the property with his sister.

    From 1818 to 1819, Shelley completed two important long poems, "Prometheus Unbound" and "The Affair", as well as his immortal masterpiece "Ode to the West Wind".

    "Prometheus Unchained", like "Queen Mab", cannot be published publicly, while Shelley's most mature and perfectly structured work "Clinique" has been called the worst contemporary work by British critics.  It seems to be from the hands of the devil.

    In 1821, John Keats passed away. In June, Shelley wrote "Adoni" to express his mourning for Keats, and to accuse the British literary world and the current social situation at that time that caused Keats's early death.
