| Abstract
|
:
|
"Mary Shelley's life (1797-1851) divides into three main stages: her childhood as daughter of two of the best known radical writers of their age - Mary Wollstonecraft and William Godwin; the travels, losses, tensions and creative achievements of her time with Percy Bysshe Shelley from 1814; and her long widowhood from 1822 when she was often lonely and depressed but worked hard to bring up her only surviving child, to help other women in danger of social exclusion, and to write her later novels and many shorter works." "This chronology follows all these experiences and activities, the genesis and publication history of her writing (Frankenstein and much else), her travels, friendships and relationships with other major figures of the Romantic period."--Jacket.
