In A Brighter Morn, noted Shelley scholars identify the qualities of this unique brand of utopianism, which was a complex and frequently conflicted blend of the personal, poetical, and political realms. This collection of essays sorts through these perplexities and discords, exploring Shelleyan utopianism in a variety of contexts place and placelessness, time and timelessness, publicity and privacy, and physicality and spirituality and concluding with a snapshot of the Western psyche at a crucial point in its development.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 1 Preface: Utopia and the Shelley Circle Chapter 2 Setting Minds Afloat: Shelley and Barruel in Ireland Chapter 3 A Political Poetics: Percy Shelley's Utopian Activism Chapter 4 Toward an Imaginative Poetics: A Convergence of Theory and Practice in A Philosophical View of Reform Chapter 5 Private Visions\/Public Responsibilities: The Alastor Volume Chapter 6 Re\/membering Home: Utopian Domesticity in Mary Shelley's Lodore Chapter 7 The Aesthetic of Utopia in Shelley's Queen Mab Chapter 8 Science and Spirit: Shelley's Vegetarian Essays and the Body as Utopian State Chapter 9 Prophet and Loss: Women and the Shelley Circle's Utopian Project","brand":"Lexington Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51037380247895,"sku":"9780739104729","price":79.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780739104729.jpg?v=1750935542","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/a-brighter-morn-9780739104729","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
