Слайд 10Шелли
талантливо, убедительно и правдиво писал о мире:
Продажно все: продажен свет
небес,
Дары любви, что нам даны землею,
Ничтожнейшие маленькие вещи,
Что в глубине, в далеких безднах скрыты,
Все, что есть в нашей жизни, жизнь сама,
Содружество людей, Свободы проблеск
И те заботы, что людское сердце
Хотело б инстинктивно выполнять -
Все на публичном рынке продается,
И себялюбье может все купить,
Всему своим клеймом поставить цену.
Продажна и любовь; услада скорби
В мученья агонии превратилась...
Слайд 11Young Shelley. In his early poems he expressed

Must be supreme, establishing his throne
On vanquished will, quelling the anarchy
Of hopes and fears, being himself alone.
