Shelley In Italy - An Anthology With An Introduction By John Lehmann

Hardcover first published 1947 by John Lehmann. The paper jacket is edge-worn and rubbed, with some loss to the head and foot of the spine, and seveal other smaller tears and creases. The spine is sunned. The boards are clean and solid, but with some bumping to the corners and edges. All pages are clean and unmarked. "This anthology contains the greater part of the lyrical and dramatic poetry which Shelley wrote after his departure from England in 1818. It has been selected to demonstrate his genius at the height of its power and the influence of Italy and the Mediterranean world upon that genius."
