Produktbeschreibung
Zastrozzi was written by Percy Bysshe Shelley (17921822) at age of 17 during his last year at Eton, and it was published in 1810 when he was at Oxford. In the first edition, he was identified on the title page only by his initials. In St. Irvyne, published shortly afterward, he was identified as "A Gentleman of the University of Oxford."
Both novels are of interest today as early artifacts of the age of the Gothic horror novelthe era that not long afterwards produced the magnificent Frankenstein by Shelley's wife Mary. A brief but complex tale of romance and revenge, Zastrozzi like its companion, St. Irvyne was praised by some critics and derided by others. Both stories manifest the creative flair of their young author, who went on to become one of the greatest poets in the English language during his short life.

Autorenporträt
After his childhood in the Sussex countryside, Percy Bysshe Shelley (17921822) attended Eton College and Oxford University. By the second decade of the 19th century, he was living mostly abroad and writing poems that didn't bring him fame during his lifetime but grew steadily in both critical stature and popular acclaim after his death. Poems including "Ozymandias," "Ode to the West Wind," "To a Skylark,"and many others such as his 1820 masterpiece "Prometheus Unbound" cemented his position as one of the greatest poets of the English Romantic period. Shelley drowned at the age of 29 in a sailing accident during a storm in the Italian Gulf of Spezia.
