Context- Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822) Percy Bysshe Shelley was a Romantic poet. His best-known poems include ‘Ozymandias’, ‘To a Skylark’ and ‘Ode to the West Wind’. He influenced a wide variety of other poets such as Robert Browning, Alfred Lord Tennyson and W. B. Yeats. He was born into a wealthy family from Sussex and his father was an MP. Shelley had radical views from a young age – at Eton he read works by the social philosopher William Godwin and was very influenced by his ideas. Shelley was even expelled from Oxford University for taking part in the writing of a pamphlet called ‘The Necessity of Atheism’. This rejection of religion was seen as shocking to a deeply religious 19th-century society.

Context- Ozymandias Ozymandias is another name for one of Egypt’s most famous pharaohs – Ramses II or Ramses the Great. He was a warrior king and a builder of temples, statues and monuments. Shelley was critical of the royal family and monarchical government in England and sympathised with the ideals behind the French Revolution. ‘Ozymandias’ has been read by some as a condemnation of undemocratic or tyrannical government, reflecting Shelley’s radical views.

Now read the poem… Were you right?
