Shelley's Preface[edit]

The Preface to Alastair is as famous as the poem itself and has garnered a fair amount of commentary, both for its functional aspects, i.e., why Shelley felt compelled to supply such an extended gloss to his work, and for the masterly tone of its prose. Some notice of this fact should be incorporated into the article. Orthotox (talk) 04:52, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
