English Literary Society holds lecture on Percy Bysshe Shelley’s birthday

A special lecture was delivered to the students by Assistant Professor Ms. Aabroo Sharma on the birth anniversary of Percy Bysshe Shelley to eulogize his scholarly merits.  A lyricist with finesse, a romantic to the core and a staunch radical, Shelley made unprecedented contributions in the field of academia. His poetry dealt with themes of the power of nature, mortality, atheism, oppression and revolution. Nature, he believed, operated not on a divine plane but at a subliminal level. His cynical writings splashed with political hues were clearly not in line with the times of his day. His politically incensed temperament earned him a bad name and at the same time made revolutionary thinkers like Karl Marx, who found recluse in his writings, embrace socialism. The lecture proved fruitful in apprising the students with the life and feats of a man who received recognition which was his due much later after his death.
