He called for revolution throughout Britain even when it annoyed those around him and became dangerous, resulting in an attempt on his life by government spies in 1813. He truly believed that literature could change the course of history, and his poetic works abound with figures of Promethean energy that transcend their time and circumstances.
即使惹怒了众人,自己也身处险境,他还是坚持呼吁全英国都发动革命。1813年政府密探甚至不得不去调查他的生活。他深信文学能够改变历史的进程,而他诗歌作品中塑造的有着普罗米修斯精神的人物也可以超越时空的限制。
He also had a habit of attracting young women and then discarding them. At 19, he eloped with the 16-year-old Harriet Westbrook, only to dump her for Mary Godwin while Harriet was pregnant with his child. She later drowned herself in the Serpentine in Hyde Park. Mary Godwins half-sister also killed herself after falling for Shelley and being rejected by him and his coterie of admirers.
他喜欢吸引少女的芳心,然后抛弃她们。他19岁便与16岁的哈里特·维斯布鲁克私奔,而当哈里特怀着她的孩子的时候他却为了追求玛丽·戈德温抛弃了她。她后来溺死在海德公园的蛇形湖里。玛丽·戈德温同父异母的妹妹也爱上了雪莱,但是遭到他拒绝,随后因没能进入他的粉丝团之后自杀身亡。
