Percy Bysshe Shelley
1792 CE–1822 CE · Poet · Field Place, Warnham (near Horsham), West Sussex (historic Sussex)
Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822) was an English Romantic poet born to a landed Sussex family. Educated at Eton and Oxford, he was expelled in 1811 after co-writing a pamphlet on atheism. He eloped with Harriet Westbrook, and later with Mary Godwin, whom he married in 1816. From 1818 he lived in Italy, producing much of his major work, including 'Ozymandias,' 'Ode to the West Wind,' 'Prometheus Unbound,' the elegy 'Adonais,' the drama 'The Cenci,' and the essay 'A Defence of Poetry.' He drowned at sea in the Gulf of La Spezia in July 1822, weeks before his thirtieth birthday. His ashes lie in Rome's Protestant Cemetery.
