URL856 Contributor biographical information URL856 Publisher description ISBN:  9780374123758 (hc : alk. paper) 0374123756 Edition:  1st American ed. Description:  xix, 364 p., [16] p. of plates : ill., map ; 24 cm. Notes:  "Originally published in 2010 by Bloomsbury Publishing, Great Britain, as Young Romantics: the Shelleys, Byron and other tangled lives." Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references and index. Summary:  Focuses on the network of writers and readers who gathered around Percy Bysshe Shelley and the campaigning journalist Leigh Hunt. They included Lord Byron, John Keats, and Mary Shelley, as well as a host of lesser-known figures: Mary Shelley's stepsister and Byron's mistress, Claire Clairmont; Hunt's botanist sister-in-law, Elizabeth Kent; the musician Vincent Novello; the painters Benjamin Haydon and Joseph Severn; and writers such as Charles and Mary Lamb, Thomas Love Peacock, and William Hazlitt. They were characterized by talent, idealism, and youthful ardor, and these qualities shaped and informed their politically oppositional stances--as did their chaotic family arrangements, which often left the young women, despite their talents, facing the consequences of the men's philosophies.
