Images and stories from around the world…
Welcome to my audio visual section. In the other sections you will find lots of talk and a few images -- here it is ALL about the images and light on the text. I will feature speeches and presentations made by myself and other Shelley scholars. From time to time you will also find photographic essays such as my tour of the Non-Catholic Cemetery for Foreigners in Rome.
Shelley's Grave - a Glorious Virtual Tour
The Non-Catholic Cemetery in Rome really should be in the top 10 "must visit" attractions for anyone with a literary bent. Virtually everywhere else you go will be overrun with tourists. Not here. What a wonderful place to go and reflect on the life of one of the world's great poets. Take some poetry and a bottle of wine. I took my copy of his Collected Poems and read Epipsychidion. Shelley has a worthy resting place indeed. Build a visit into your itinerary - make the pilgrimage; you will not regret it. It will be a pause that refreshes not just the body, but also the spirit - particularly if you like cats!!!
