Author: Shelley: English Romantic poet. Born into the nobility. Deeply influenced by the ideas of Rousseau and Godwin and others. He was expelled from Oxford University in 1881 for publishing "The Inevitability of Atheism." Soon after, he went to Dublin to join the Irish people's national independence movement. In May 1814, he met Godwin's sixteen-year-old daughter Mary and fell in love with him at first sight. In August 1816, he met Byron on the shores of Lake Geneva in Switzerland. In 1818 the family moved to Italy. During his four years in Italy, he not only wrote the world-famous Ode to the West Wind, To the Lark and The Clouds, but also wrote a series of long works that showed his truly great talent. In July 1822 Shelley and his friend ChengLians took a yacht to welcome L. Hunt and his family, who had been invited to Italy to help Byron start the journal. On the way back, the storm suddenly overturned the ship and unfortunately drowned.
