To him the emancipation of mankind could only be won “by resolute perseverance and in-courage, and the systematic efforts of generations of men of intellect and virtue”
The revolutionary rebellious young Shelley was influenced by all the revolutionary and ideas of this time, Through Mab, he announced that “there is no God!” What he visualized was an ideal society under the rule of the goddess Necessity. In it humanity would return to its natural condition of good-ness and freedom.
In Shelley’s poem Prometheus represents mankind itself and Zeus becomes the symbol of reactionary force. To Shelly, the images of Prometheus embodies four noble qualities: man’s intellect, his heroic endurance, his defiance of tyranny and his love of mankind. At the end of the drama, Prometheus is freed by Demogorgon, a symbol of benign forces in the universe. Prometheus bound becomes Prometheus unbound; Prometheus triumphant. It is the victory of mankind over tyranny and oppression. Yet, the poem is disliked by some readers, complaining that it fails to bring ordinary life into the drama.

雪莱诗选SelectedPoemsofShelley(三)雪莱传世之作——西风颂(中英文)1哦,狂暴的西风,秋之生命的呼吸!你无形,但枯死的落叶被你横扫,有如鬼魅碰到了巫师,纷纷逃避:黄的,黑的,灰的,红得像患肺痨,呵,重染疫疠的一群:西风呵,是你以车驾把有翼的种子催送到黑暗的冬床上,它们就躺在那里,像是墓中的死穴,冰冷,深藏,低贱,直等到春天,你碧空的姊妹吹起她的喇叭,在沉睡的大地上响遍,(唤出嫩芽,象羊群一样,觅食空中)将色和香充满了山峰和平原。
不羁的精灵呵,你无处不远行;破坏者兼保护者:听吧,你且聆听!2没入你的急流,当高空一片混乱,流云象大地的枯叶一样被撕扯脱离天空和海洋的纠缠的枝干。
成为雨和电的使者:它们飘落在你的磅礴之气的蔚蓝的波面,有如狂女的飘扬的头发在闪烁,从天穹的最遥远而模糊的边沿直抵九霄的中天,到处都在摇曳欲来雷雨的卷发,对濒死的一年你唱出了葬歌,而这密集的黑夜将成为它广大墓陵的一座圆顶,里面正有你的万钧之力的凝结;那是你的浑然之气,从它会迸涌黑色的雨,冰雹和火焰:哦,你听!3是你,你将蓝色的地中海唤醒,而它曾经昏睡了一整个夏天,被澄澈水流的回旋催眠入梦,就在巴亚海湾的一个浮石岛边,它梦见了古老的宫殿和楼阁在水天辉映的波影里抖颤,而且都生满青苔、开满花朵,那芬芳真迷人欲醉!呵,为了给你让一条路,大西洋的汹涌的浪波把自己向两边劈开,而深在渊底那海洋中的花草和泥污的森林虽然枝叶扶疏,却没有精力;听到你的声音,它们已吓得发青:一边颤栗,一边自动萎缩:哦,你听!4哎,假如我是一片枯叶被你浮起,假如我是能和你飞跑的云雾,是一个波浪,和你的威力同喘息,假如我分有你的脉搏,仅仅不如你那么自由,哦,无法约束的生命!假如我能像在少年时,凌风而舞便成了你的伴侣,悠游天空(因为呵,那时候,要想追你上云霄,似乎并非梦幻),我就不致像如今这样焦躁地要和你争相祈祷。
哦,举起我吧,当我是水波、树叶、浮云!我跌在生活底荆棘上,我流血了!这被岁月的重轭所制服的生命原是和你一样:骄傲、轻捷而不驯。

西风颂 英文赏析
Ode to west windIntroductionThe west wind was widely adopted in S helley’s poetry. From the whole poem, we can see it describes the poet’s love for the nature.At the same time, the poem expresses the hope that its words will inspire and influence those who read or hear it. The author praised the west wind as both destroyer and preserver.This essay contains four parts; firstly it will talk about the structure of the west wind. The second part is the information of the language or the diction of the poem. The third part discusses the rhythm of the poem. The last part is about the images of the poem which conveys the hidden feeling of the authorStructureIt consists of five stanzas. Ode to the West Wind can be divided in two parts: the first three stanzas and The last two stanzas .The three stanzas describes the wind's effects upon earth, air, and ocean. The last two stanzas are Shelley speaking directly to the wind, asking for its power, to lift him like a leaf, a cloud or a wave and make him its companion in its wanderings.In the first stanza, the poet adopted the color contrast tactic and described the s cene when west wind swept autumn--"Yellow, and black, and pale, and hectic red", in dicating that turbulent west wind blew down leaves and spread the seeds into land aga in, waiting for the arrival of spring. In the sentence, people could imagine a fading sce ne full of fallen leaves. However, when the spring comes, colors will turn soft and bri ght"colors and fragrance will be spread over mountains and plains". The poet proved himself to be "color" player, in several lines of whose poems, the changing process of the nature, from dull to prosperous, was perfectly presented. Finally, the poet names t he ubiquitous west wind as both "destroyer and protector," which includes certain und erstanding that west wind break the old world and create a completely new world. Acc ording to Maharishi, "The nature of life is to grow," west wind is the power of developing. The second stanza is predominantly concerned with the violence and terror of air storms, and it begins with a description which expresses the powerful spectacle of turbulence, which brings air (Heaven) and water (Ocean) together as one powerful force. The power of the West Wind is reflected in what it can do——taking control over the clouds in the sky. The poet says the west wind drives clouds along just as it does dead leaves after it shakes the clouds free of the sky and the oceansIn the third stanza, the view was switched from the high sky to the ocean. Shel ley mainly described how the west wind woke up the ocean and caused panic among s ea pants. Prior to the arrival of the west wind, the sea was as calm as if it has slept for a whole summer. Moreover, it also saw the "ancient palace and pavilions" in its dream . The readers were also able to see reflection of the pavilions the clear water and the ri pples formed a scene with full-bodiedly beauty. Then, the sea was also embedded with also personality, who, prior to the arrival of west wind, actively split itself and expose d the sea plants which hid deeply at the bottom of the sea. This peculiar description se ems to be completely broad imagination of the poet, while also complies with the law of nature.In the above three stanzas, the poet described how the west wind swept from t he sky to the sea. However, in the fourth stanza, the poet focused on himself and wish ed that the wester wind could took him away, like the way it did to leaves, clouds and ripples in the sea. The poet was eager to float in the world freely. In order to demonstr ate speed of the west wind and the poet's eagerness, the poet used a series of the same sentence pattern and formed a clanging and floating rhythm of the poetry. DictionStanza 1Shelly uses “O wild west wind”, the 3 “w” indicates a state of blowing, the west wind blows continuously and breaks through all the barriers. Besides, the “w” is also a powerful sound. The whole poet uses the west wind as the subject instead of “I”, the observer. In fact, it is Shelly who hears the west wind.Thus, Shelly wants toemphasize the role of the west wind. Compared with the power of the west wind, human beings are too inferior. The word “unseen” means invisible, it means although the west wind can’t be seen, but we can feel it from the different colors of the dead leaves. It conveys a sense of horror. “are driven”, passive voice, the word “drive” or “flee” indicates power. “Yellow”, ”black”“pale”“hectic red” all are colors of the dead leaves. The west wind blows the autumn leaves off the tree. “the winged seeds”, which means many plants, including trees, perpetrate themselves by seeds borne on the wind. It shows the speed of the west wind. The word “clarion” means a kind of trumpet whose note is clear and shrill. After people died 12 days, the angel will blow the trumpet and judge on people. In Shelly’s eyes, the west wind is charming. At the end of the first stanza; Shelly expressed his strong emotion in the short sentence: “Oh, hear!” “oh” expresses his excitement and admiration of hearing or “seeing” the wild west wind.Stanza 2“Loose clouds like earth’s decaying leaves are shed”, the poet describes the clouds just playing the same role as leaves in the last section. “angels of rain and lightning”, the poet regards rain and lightning as angels, which symbolize good things.in other words, it’s the revolution storm, through describing them and the bright hair, we know the power of the wind.The night that’s falling as the storm comes is going to be like a dark-domed tomb constructed of thunderclouds, lightning, and rain. The image here is of the darkened sky similar to a vast cathedral's interior, with the solid clouds forming the roof, and further images of death and also of the apocalypse: "vast sepulchre", "dying year", etc. All these "dark" and "fearsome" expressions create the power of the West Wind." Congregated "means "condensed" . "Congregated might/Of Vapours "means" The clouds are so condensed that they carry a great force". The word "congregated" and "solid" vividly and explicitly explains the state of vapours, which makes the power reflected behind understandable and reasonable.In the last sentence, the verb "burst" creates a scene of spurt, which comes from a long-term accumulation and condensed energy. With the use of these verbs, we can easily form the image of fierceness and sense the potential yet great power of the West Wind.Stanza3:Leaving the earth and the sky behind, the poet pays attention to the blue Mediterranean, which presents a quiet, easeful circumstance. “lull” makes somebody relaxed and calm. Shelly uses lull to show that the ocean is also powerful and usually not peaceful except that he is asleep. Even though the ocean is full of power, he is still afraid of the west wind's force. Shelly chooses coil to show how gentle the streams are and the ocean has a sound sleep. “For whose path the Atlantic's level powers, Cleave themselves into chasms, while far below”. “Path” here means to make a path for the west wind. “Chasms” means a deep crack or opening in the ocean. Two w ords vividly describe the force of the west wind. Suddenly grow gray, the blue Mediterranean and crystalline streams. The colors of the ocean turn blue and crystalline to gray. It is important to mention that the ocean grows grey the minute he recognizes the sound of the west wind. The three words---quivering, tremble and despoil, Through the three words, Shelly makes a contrast to show the great power of the uncontrollable west wind, especially using despoil which means to destroy. Structure and Rhyme SchemeEach stanza of the poem has three tercets and a closing couplet. In poetry, a tercet is a unit of three lines that usually contain end rhyme; a couplet is a two-line unit that usually contains end rhyme. Shelley wrote the tercets in a verse form called terza rima, invented by Dante Alighieri. In this format, line 2 of one tercet rhymes with lines 1 and 3 of the next tercet. In regard to the latter, consider the first three tercets of the second stanza of "Ode to the West Wind." Notice that shed (second line, first tercet) rhymes with spread and head (first and third lines, second tercet) and that surge (second line, second tercet) rhymes with verge and dirge (first and third lines,third tercet).Thou on whose stream, 'mid the steep sky's commotion,Loose clouds like earth's decaying leaves are shed,Shook from the tangled boughs of heaven and ocean,Angels of rain and lightning! there are spreadOn the blue surface of thine airy surge,Like the bright hair uplifted from the head 20Of some fierce Mænad, even from the dim vergeOf the horizon to the zenith's height,The locks of the approaching storm. Thou dirge.......All of the couplets in the poem rhyme, Shelley unifies the content of the poem by focusing the first three stanzas on the powers of the wind.......ImageThe most important image he created in this poetry is the “west wind”, which plays the roles of destroyer and preserver.Inhe first canto, Shelley painted a picture that the west wind was sweeping “th e leaves dead” and blowing the seeds into the earth by using metaphor and symbolism . The west wind is compared to the invincible “breath of Autumn’sbeing” in nature. B esides that, the west wind in spring was assimilated to the “Thine azure sister of Sprin g”. Combining with the background at that time, we can infer that “the leaves dead” r epresents British reactionary class. “Pestilence-stricken multitudes” insinuated the stat e of dying reactionary class. Wild spirit signified the power of revolutionary, which de stroyed the rotted old stuffs and supported the living new stuffs at same time.In the second canto, Shelley focuses on the images of air to fully describ e the majestic west wind, such as cloud, rain, and lightning. “Angels of rain and lightn ing” is howling for coming wind and rain, inferred that west wind brought the storm o f revolution by employ personification. The images, such as, Black rain, fire, and hailhe employed all signify the immense destructive power of west wind. The view turnin g from the ground to the sky implies the revolution is coming soon.In the third canto, the west wind is steering out to sea. Here, the blue Mediterr anean symbols the rules of the time. While they are dormant in the “crystalline stream s” and in the “azure moss and flowers”, the palaces and towers are quivering. In sharp contrast to the static state, the dynamic state implies the status of reactionary class is hanged by a thread. Combining the west wind with ocean, wave and old palaces, Shell ey anticipate that the west wind would cleave through the waves, and all the palaces a nd towers symbolized the rulers of the time would be going to the end.。

3. The Romantic periodDefinition of literary terms1. Romanticism.Romanticism is a term applied to literary and artistic movements of the late 18th and early 19th century. It can be seen as a rejection of the precepts of order, calm, harmony, balance, idealization, and rationality that typified classicism in general and late 18th-century neoclassicism in particular. It was also to some extent a reaction against the Enlightenment and against 18th-century rationalism and physical materialism in general. Inspired in part by the libertarian ideals of the French Revolution, the romantics believed in a return to nature and in the innate goodness of humans, as expressed by Jean Jacques Rousseau. They emphasized the individual, the subjective, the irrational, the imaginative, the personal, the spontaneous, the emotional, the visionary, and the transcendental. They also showed interest in the medieval, exotic, primitive, and nationalistic. Critics date English literary romanticism from the publication of William Wordsworth and S.T. Coleridge’s Lyrical Ballads in 1798 to the death of Sir Walter Scott and the passage of the first reform bill in the Parliament in 1832.2. Byronic hero. “Byronic hero”is a stereotyped character created by Byron. This kind of hero is usually a proud, mysterious rebel figure of noble origin.

Defense of Poetry G. W. Blake8. “Tintern Abbey”H. W. Scott9. Waverley10. “Ode to a Nightingale”Reading comprehension(For each of the quotations listed below please give the name of the author and the title of the literary work from which it is taken and then briefly interpret it.)1. “It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.However little known the feelings or review of such a man may be on his first entering a neighborhood, this truth is so well fixed in the minds of the surrounding families, that he is considered as the rightful property of some one or other of their daughters.”Reference: The two sentences are taken from Jane Austen’s novel, Pride and Prejudice. They are the opening sentences of the novel, in which Jane Austen is making an ironic suggestion that the families in the society she wrote about were always looking forrich husbands to whom they could marry their daughters. The sentence sets the tone for both structurally and verbally. The sentence begins as though the novel were going to be a great philosophical discourse. “It is a truth universally acknowledged” implies that the novel will deal with truths, but the second half of the sentence reveals that the great universal truth is no more than a consideration of a common social situation. Thus there is an ironic difference between the formal manner of the statement and the ultimate meaning of the sentence. The “truth” spoken of is that a man in possession of a fortune must need a wife, whereas in reality the sentence means that a woman without a fortune needs a man with fortune for a husband. We should also realize that the viewpoint of the first sentence is that of a woman. Only a female would make this statement, and Jane Austen is going to present most of the problems of the novel from the feminine viewpoint.2. “For oft, when on my couch I lieIn vacant or in pensive mood,They flash upon that inward eyeWhich is the bliss of solitude;And then my heart with pleasure fills,And dances with the daffodils.”Reference: These lines are taken from Wordsworth’s poem “I Wondered Lonely as a Cloud”. This is the 4th stanza of the poem. Nature and man come together explicitly in stanza 4 when the speaker says that his heart dances with the daffodils. A different kind of repetition appears in the movement from the “loneliness”of line one to the “solitude”of line 22. Both words denote an aloneness, but they suggest a radical difference in the solitary person’s attitude to his state of being alone. The poem moves from the sadly alienated separation felt by the speaker in the beginning to his joy in recollecting the natural scene, a movement framed by the words “lone” and “solitude”. An analogous movement is suggested within the final stanza by words “vacant” and “fills”. The emptiness of speaker’s spirit is transformed into a fullness of feeling as he remembers the daffodils.3. “A violet by a mossy stoneHalf hidden from the eye!--- Fair as a star, when only oneIs shining in the sky.”Reference: These lines are taken from Wordsworth’s “She Dwelt Among the Untrodden Ways”. By using a metaphor and a simile, the poet compares Lucy with a violet, a wild flower growing by a mossy stone, and a fair star, shining in the sky. The two comparisons are meant to enhance Lucy’s charm by associating her with such attractive objects as flowers and stars. Lucy’s natural charm, like that of the violet, was derived from her modesty. She, too, was “half-hidden from the eye”, obscure and unnoticed. Though Lucy was, to the world, as completely obscure as the modest flower in the shadow of the mossy stone, to the eye of her lover she was the only star in his heaven, shining like the planet of love itself.4. “Place me on Sunium’s marbled steep,Where nothing , save the waves and I,May hear our mutual murmurs sweep;There, swan-like, let me sing and die:A land of slaves shall ne’er be mien---Dash down you cup of Samian wine!”Reference: These lines are taken from George Gordon Byron’s Don Juan, Part III “The Isles of Greece”. In these lines, by contrasting the freedom enjoyed by the ancient Greeks with the enslavement of the early 19th-century Greeks under Tukish rule, Byron uses such word to call on the Greeks to struggle for their national liberation.Questions1.What is the theme of Don Juan?2.What are the main features of Blake’s poetry?pare “The Chimney Sweeper”from Songs of Innocence with “The ChimneySweeper” from Songs of Experience.4.How is Shelley’s Prometheus Unbound different from the traditional Greekinterpretation?。

英国文学选读Poetry1,Shelley Ode to the W est Wind 《西风颂》雪莱Shelley has a reputation as a difficult poet: erudite, imagistically complex, full of classical and mythological allusions. His style abounds in personification and metaphor and other figures of speech.。
Ode: an elaborately formal lyric poem, often in the form of a lengthy ceremonious address to a person or abstract entity, always serious and elevated in tone.One of Shelley's most celebrated works, it was written by Shelley on a day when the weather was unpredictable and windy, the poem reflects the mood of the weather and expresses Shelley‟s desire for creativeness and intellect.This poem reveals Shelley‟s view of life. The power and the cycle of nature are presented in a mythical way. The wind represents the revival, but just of the existing things.In it we see Shelley fusing the airy imagery, the interplay of colour and light and shadow which are his poetic forte, with the philosophical and moral concerns that tinged his political life.…Ode to the West Wind‟ is written in terza rima,a poetic rhyme scheme which involve interlocking rhymes,written in iambic tercets. The rhyme scheme is aba bcb cdc ded (and so forth) for as long as the poet wishes to continue, thus the rhyme scheme is aba bcb cdc ded ee. The lines themselves are in a (not very rigorous) pentameter.Apart from the alliteration it is also worth noting the capitalisation of West Wind in the poem. In typically Romantic fashion an abstract quality or aspect of Nature is personified and addressed in the poem, such that it appears divine or god-like, or as an expression of the divine entity.Overall AnalysisThe "West Wind" and Shelley himself are the main characters of the ode. The "West Wind" represents liberty, the untamedness of nature and power for Shelley. The wind is the changing part in nature, which also controls heaven and the sea. It can stand for death, but at the same time it means life.On the one hand, the wind that Shelley discribes is simple in its function ("Destroyer and preserver"), but on the other hand it is a mystical thing. Its power and its position in nature can only be compared with the function of a god. The wind decides on life and death.Shelley sees the wind as a chance to get a new inspiration and to transmit his ideas and "prophecy".2,William Wordsworththe “Lake Poets”: Wordsworth, Southey and ColeridgeIn 1843, Wordsworth succeeded Southey as Poet LaureateMajor features of Lyrical Ballads:《抒情诗集》1) simplicity of much of the language;2) sympathy with the poor;3) fusion of natural description with expressions of inward states of mind.Position/Contributionthe leading figure of the English romantic poetryContribution: started the modern poetry, the poetry of the growing inner self; changed the course of English poetry by using ordinary speech and by advocating a return to natureDaffodils/The Daffodils I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud《我好似一片孤独的流云》1. BackgroundThe poem was inspired by an April 15, 1802 event in which Wordsworth and his sister, Dorothy, came across a “long belt” of daffodils. The poem was written in 1804 and his inspiration for the poem came from an account written by Dorothy.2.

He strongly criticized the capitalist cruel exploitation. He cherished great expectations and enthusiasm for the French Revolution. He once said the "dark satanic mills left men employed , killed children and forced prostitution".LiterarilyBlack was the first important romantic poet, showing contempt for the rule of reason, opposite the classical tradition of the 18th century, and treasuring the individual's imagination.Major Literary W orksSongs of Innocence(1809)A lovely volume of po Songs of Innocence(1809) ems, presenting a happy and innocent world, though not without its evils and sufferings.However, in “The little black boy” and “The chimney sweeper”, we find racial discrimination and sufferings of the poor.Songs of Experience (1794)A much mature work..

And the “hammer,” “anvil,” and “furnace” are images of an industrial revolution which Blake would have seen approaching in his lifetimeThe creator persona featured in the poem “twisted the sinews” of the tiger heart. These sinews are the tendons which make the heart work; they are the source of power, the biological engine as well as a symbol of the ti ger‟s passion for living.4,William Shakespeare•the greatest of all English authors• a landmark in the history of world culture and literature•The first founders of realism, a masterhand at realistic portrayal of human characters and relations•Four great tragedies: Othello, King Lear, Macbeth, and Hamlet.•Four great comedies: A Midsummer Night’s Dream, The Merchant of Venice, As You Like It, Twelfth Night•The rhyme scheme is as follows:abab cdcd efef gg•Sonnet 18•Simile and Rhetorical question•the 1st line, used to create a tone of respect, and to engage the audience. •Personification:•line 5,6 and line 11, used to elevate the sun and death.And often is his gold complexion dimmedRough winds do shake the darling buds of May•hyperbole•thy eternal summer•Nor shall death brag thou wander‟ st in his shade•metaphor•And summer‟s lease hath all too short a date•Parallelism: the final couplet, used to emphasize the message: the beauty of the subject will be immortalized by the power of his art•pun•And every fair from fair sometime declines•Metaphysical Poets (玄学派诗人)•The term “metaphysical poetry”is commonly used to designate the work of the 17th-century poets who wrote under the influence of John Donne.•The metaphysical poets were, in their own time, modern and revolutionary.

The contrast of Shelly's three poems
- 252-校园英语 / 文艺鉴赏The contrast of Shelly’s three poems贵州师范大学外国语学院/庞佳佳【Abstract 】The paper mainly analyzes three poems of Shelly ’s, One Word Is Too Often Profaned, Love ’s Philosophy, Mutability. Although they have different themes, they all relate love, his comprehension of love as he grows. 【Key words 】theme; rhetorical device; rhymeIn the thesis, I would like to choose three poems of Shelly ’s, namely One Word Is Too Often Profaned, Love ’s Philosophy, Mutability, which talk about love and life. Percy Bysshe Shelly is one of the prominent figures of the English Romanticism and was famous for his rebellious spirit against English political and social values. The theme of his poems changes from the love, nature to the changing course of human life. The three poems are about the love and life, but they show Shelly ’s different attitudes on love and life, I mainly comparative them from the perspective of theme, rhyme, rhetorical devices and so on.From the perspective of theme, the first poem, One Word Is Too Often Profaned, which written in 1822, it was intended for Jane Williams to express Shelly ’s deep and genuine devotion for Jane. Shelly used words “one word, one feeling one hope ” to stand for his love towards Jane. He says the word has been so often profaned or misused that he will not use it to describe the relationship. He then uses the word “pity ” to express that Jane is dearer than any other woman. Then Shelly chooses the word “worship ” to describe the nature of his devotion. And in the real world, it also applies. Pure relationship is equal to desperation. The second poem, Love ’s Philosophy, uses different natural scenes; fountain, river, ocean, etc, to show his love. He first uses his colorful words to describe nature and concludes the rule that all things are in couple. For example, river mixes with ocean, sunlight clasps the earth. And then he spreads to the relationship of human beings and points out love is natural relation from the heart. In the second part of the poem, he transits from the nature to the human, and at last encourages people in love do not fear the opposition of the secular world, bravely express their emotions. The second stanza is similar to the first one structurally. But obviously, the author has put much more emotion to state “Love ’s Philosophy ”. The whole poem mixes the scenes and emotions, leaves a deep impression to readers. Shelly advocates that though love is determined by physical world, how the world goes, our love is a natural and free thing. The third poem, Mutability, includes fourquatrains, various symbols of clouds, wind harps, to describe the permanence and impermanence of life. “The first two stanzas concern the bustle and hurry of life which only conceals its inherent transience.”(James,2008) Human ’s lives are as vaporous as clouds. The last two stanzas concern the theme of the lack of freedom. “The themes of transformation and metamorphosis and the transitory and ephemeral nature of human life.”(Edmund,1947) The conclusion is that the only constant is change. The whole poem expresses the changing of life.From the perspective of rhyme, the first poem, One Word Is Too Often Profaned, “The metrical feet used in the poem are a mixture of anapests and iambs.”(Fowler,1904)The style of rhyme is ababcdcd. The second poem, Love ’s Philosophy, has two stanzas, each with eight sentences, forms a sonnet. The rhyme is interlaced by line. The last poem ,Mutability, is in abab iambic pentameter.From the perspective of rhetorical devices, One Word Is Too Often Profaned, the author uses metaphor, there is not one word-love used in the poem, but we can feel the love any line. He compares the love as “one word, one feeling, one hope ”. And he compares his love as “worship, devotion, desire ” and compares himself as moth night while the lady is compared as star, sorrow to show long distance between the poet and the lady. Also the writer uses repetition to express his strong emotion. In the Love ’s Philosophy, the author uses personification and contrast to show the philosophy of love. “The mountain kiss high heaven, moonbeams kiss the sea, the waves clasp, the sunlight clasps the earth ”. The last poem, Mutability, the poet uses metaphor, personification, parallelism to describe the changing of life, at the same time, strengthen the tone and emotion of the poem.

Shelley
ShelleyI His LifeShelley (1792-1822) wasborn into a wealthy familyat Sussex. Though gentle by nature, his rebellious qualities were cultivated in his early years. At 18, Shelley entered Oxford University, where he had written & circulated a pamphlet,The Necessity of Atheism (1811), repudiating the existence of God. This event resulted in his expulsion from the university & being disinherited by his headstrong father. Early in 1818, Shelley & his wife Mary left England for Italy. During the Remaining four years of his life, Shelley traveled & lived in various Italian cities. Shelley was drowned in 1822 in storm near La Spezia, at the age of 30..is Literary OutlookShelley grew up with violent revolutionary ideas under the influence of the free thinkers like Hume(休姆(1711-1776, 苏格兰历史学家、哲学家) and Godwin(戈德温(1756-1836) 英国作家和政论家), so he held a life-long aversion to cruelty, injustice, authority, institutional religion& the formal shams of respectable society, condemning war, tyranny & exploitation, However, under the influence of Christian humanism, Shelley took interest in social reform s. He realized that the evil was also in man's mind. So he predicted that only through gradual & suitable reforms of the existing institutions could benevolence be universally established & none of the evils would survive in this "genuine society", where people could live together happily, freely & peacefully.III. His major works1) Lyrics: "To a Skylark" & "Ode to the West Wind"In "To a Skylark," the bird, suspended between reality & poetic image, pours forth an exultant song which suggests to the poet both celestial rapture & human limitation. Best of all the well-known lyric pieces is Shelley's "Ode to the West Wind " (1819); here Shelley's rhapsodic & declamatory tendencies find a subject perfectly suited to them.The autumn wind,burying the dead year, preparing for a new Spring, becomes an image of Shelley himself, as he would want to be, in its freedom, its destructive-constructive potential, its universality. "I fall upon the thorns ofcould not bear being fettered to the humdrum realities of everyday! The whole poem has a logic of feeling, a not easily analyzable progression that leads to the triumphant, hopeful & convincing conclusion: "If winter comes, can Spring before behind?" The poem is written in the terza rima form Shelley derived from his reading of Dante. The nervous thrill of Shelley's response to nature however is here transformed through the power of art & imagination into a longing to be united with a force at once physical & prophetic. Here is no conservative reassurance, no comfortable mysticism, but the primal amorality of nature itself, with its mad fury & its pagan ruthlessness. Shelley's ode is an invocation to a primitive deity, a plea to exalt him in its fury & to trumpet the radical prophecy of hope & terza rima[意]三行体(象旦丁《神曲》中所用的诗体, 三行为一节, 每节的第二行与下一节的第一、三行押韵, 如:aba, bcb, cdc)2) Poetic drama: Prometheus Unbound (1820)Shelley's greatest achievement is his four-act poetic drama, Prometheus Unbound. According to the Greek mythology, Prometheus, the champion of humanity, who has stolen the fire from Heaven, is punished by Zeus to be chained on MountCaucasus & suffers the vulture's feeding on his liver. Shelley based his drama on Prometheus Bound by Aeschylus埃斯库罗斯, in which Prometheus reconciles with the tyrant Zeus. Radical & revolutionary as Shelley,averse from a catastrophe so feeble as that reconciling the Champion with the oppressor of Mankind." So he gave a totally different interpretation, transforming the compromise into a liberation. With the strong support of Earth, his mother; Asia, his bride & the help from Demogorgon & Hercules, Zeus is driven from the throne; Prometheus is unbound. The play is an exultant work in praise of humankind's potential, & Shelley himself recognized it as " the most perfect of my products."IV. Characteristics of Shelley's Poetry Shelley is one of the lending Romantic poets, an intense &original lyrical poet in the English language. Like Blake, he has a reputation as a difficult poet: erudite, imagistically complex, full of classical & mythological allusions. His style aboundspersonification & metaphor & other figures of speech which describe vividly what we see & feel, or express what passionately moves us.Themes of Shelley’s PoetryThe central thematic concerns of Shelley's poetry are largely the same themes that defined Romanticism, especially among the younger English poets of Shelley's era:beauty, the passions, nature, political liberty, creativity, and the sanctity of the imagination.V. Selected ReadingsOde to the West Windpoem "Ode to the West Wind" in 1819 and published it in 1820. Some have interpreted the poem to be an expression ofthe speaker lamenting his current geolocation, but at the same time rejoicing in the fact his/her written works will have influence over people in different geolocations. More than anything else, Shelley wanted his message of reform and revolution spread, and the wind becomes the trope for spreading the word of change. Also during this time Percy Bysshe Shelley was writing this poem, he was in a great deal of emotion pain from the loss of his son (Charles). Some believe that this is another reason why Shelley wrote Ode to the West WindOde to the West WindThe English odes are generally of three types: (1) the Pindaric ode品达体,following the pattern originated by the ancient Greek poet Pindar, (2) the Cowley-style ode考利体, named after Abraham Cowley, an English poet of the 17th century, and (3) the Horatian ode 贺拉斯体, named after the ancient Roman poet Horace.Shelley's "Ode to the West Wind" is of the Horatian type,i.e., with stanzas of uniform length and arrangement.1. By "I fall upon the thorns of life, I bleed", Shelley tells the world that he can’t be limited by the humdrum reality of everyday and he can’t be fettered to the corrupt old life! He wants to be free, proud and forceful like the wild west wind, to destruct and construct with the2. By "If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind?" The poet trumpeted the radical prophecy of hope and rebirth.3. By called the west wind "Destroyer and Preserver" , the poet shows us the power of the west wind which buried the dead year and the old world and prepared for a new spring.Form of the poemThe poem Ode to the West Wind consists of five cantos written in terza rima. Each canto consists of four triplets (ABA,BCB, CDC, DED) and a rhyming couplet (EE). all metered in iambic pentameter. The rhyme scheme in each part follows a pattern known as[意]三行体(象旦丁《神曲》中所用的诗体, 三行为一节, 每节的第二行与下一节的第一、三行押韵, 如:aba, bcb, cdc), the three-line rhyme scheme employed by Dante in his Divine Comedy. In the three-line terza rima stanza, the first and third lines rhyme, and the middle line does not; then the end sound of that middle line is employed as the rhyme for the first and third lines in the next stanza. The final couplet rhymes with the middle line of the last three-line stanza. Thus each of the seven parts of "Ode to the West Wind" follows this scheme: ABA BCB CDC DED EE.Ode to the West Wind" is one of Shelley's best known lyrics. The poet describes vividly the activities of the west wind on the earth, in the sky andsea, and then expresses his envy for the boundless freedom of the west wind, and his wish to be free like the wind and to scatter his words among mankind.The poem Ode to the West Wind was the best known of Shelley's shorter poems. In the poem the poet describes vividly the activities of the West Wind on the earth, in the sky & on the sea, & then expresses his envy for the boundless freedom of the West Wind & his wish to be free like the wind & scatter his words among mankind. He gathered in this poem a wealth of symbolism, employed a structural art & his powers of metrical orchestration at their mightiest. The autumn wind, burying the dead year, preparing for aShelley himself, as he would want to be, in its freedom, its destructive-constructive power, its universality, "I fall upon thethorns of life! I bleed!" calls the Shelley that could not bear being fettered to the humdrum realities of everyday! The whole poem has a logic of feeling, a progression that leads to the triumphant, hopeful & convincing conclusion: "If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind?" Here is no reassurance, no mysticism, but the primal amorality of nature itself, with its mad fury & its pagan ruthlessness. Shelley's ode is an invocation to a primitive deity, a plea to exalt him in its fury & to trumpet the radical prophecy of hope & rebirth.SummaryThe speaker invokes the "wild West Wind" of autumn, which scatters the dead leaves and spreads seeds so that they may be nurtured by the spring, and asks that the wind, a "destroyer and preserver," hear him. The speaker calls the wind the "dirge / Of the dying year," and describes how it stirs up violent storms, and again implores it to hear him. The speaker says that the wind stirs the Mediterranean from "his summer dreams," and cleaves the Atlantic into choppy chasms, making thess foliage" of the ocean tremble, and asks for a third time that it hears him.The speaker says that if he were a dead leaf that the wind could bear, or a cloud it could carry, or a wave it could push, or even if he were, as a boy, "the comrade" of the wind's "wandering over heaven," then he would never have needed to pray to the wind and invoke its powers. He pleads with the wind to lift him "as a wave, a leaf, a cloud!" -- for though he is like the wind at heart, untamable and proud--he is now chained and bowed with the weight of his hours upon the earth.The speaker asks the wind to "make me thy lyre," to be his own Spirit, and to"like withered leaves, to quicken a new birth." He asks the wind, by the incantation of this verse, to scatter his words among mankind, to be the "trumpet of a prophecy." Speaking both in regard to the season and in regard to the effect upon mankind that he hopes his words to have, the speaker asks: "If winter comes, can spring be far behind?"。
