   Shelly was born into an affluent family. He studied at some of the best colleges of that time, namely Eton College, Oxford University. However, he remained an average student throughout his college days.
    While studying at Oxford, Shelly published his first novel “Zastrozzi” that was based on his views on atheism.
    The college authorities were not at all pleased with Shelly’s ideologies. This reached its zenith point when Shelly along with Thomas Jefferson Hogg, published “The necessity of Atheism”. Needless to say, P B Shelly was expelled from the college.

    In Ireland Shelly was actively involved in participating in national rallies and distributing pamphlets. At this time, Shelly wrote “Address to the Irish People”. His activities were opposed by the British government.
    While on a trip to the river Rhine with Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin, P B Shelly composed his “History of Six Weeks’ Tour”.
    P B Shelly had a strong friendship with Lord Byron and as a true friend Byron inspired him to write many a work including his first drama, “Prometheus Unbound”.
    It was in the company of the great Lord Byron, that Shelly wrote “Hymn to Intellectual Beauty”. This poem made Shelly popular as a poet.
    While touring the Alps, Shelly wrote another poem “Mount Blanc” in which he expressed that there is a close relationship between man and nature.
    P B Shelly took an active part in literary circles. In one of these circles, he met John Keats whose influence turned out the work Laon and Cythna or “The Revolution of the Golden City”. As the book was based on atheism, it was renamed as “The Revolt of Islam” and then circulated in the market.
    At the same time, Shelly published yet another revolutionary political work “The Hermit of Marlow”.
    Shelly is most popular for his two poems, “The Masque of Anarchy” and “Men of England”.
    As an essayist, Shelly made his mark with his essay “The Philosophical View of Reform”.
    A poet is a nightingale, who sits in darkness and sings to cheer its own solitude with sweet sounds.
