About the book

"Ambitious in its scope, Shelley among Others: The Play of the Intertext and the Idea of Language is a comprehensive reading of Shelley's oeuvre through the lens of recent developments in literary and psychoanalytic theory. Stuart Peterfreund not only provides thought-provoking readings of well-known works but also explores less familiar pieces to illuminate their relationship to Shelley's continually evolving conceptions of language, power, and the role of poetry in society."--BOOK JACKET.

First sentence: Shelley's poetry and critical prose exhibit a concern with how language generally, and poetic language in particular, affects the artistic, intellectual, and social construction and authorization of lived experience.
