断片 The Triumph of Life における“the sacred few”と“those deludded crew”
THE SACRED FEW AND "THOSE DELUDED CREW" IN THE TRIUMPH OF LIFE
高橋, 規矩
In this study the writer examines the important contrast between "the sacred few" and "those deluded crew" formed throughout The Triumph of Life (1822), Shelley's swan song. He shows that the former represents those who, by their imagination, succeeded in arriving at the knowledge of "love" harmonizing the passions within their souls; while the latter represents those who, instead of imagination, chose reason, the faculty unable to "know themselves" or to "repress the mutiny within" (i. e. their inner passions), and so, driven by the "mutiny," became the victims of worldly life, and perished in misery and tragedy. Thus the writer concludes that it may be Shelley's moral intention in the poem to suggest to his readers the necessity of "love" as "the great secret of morals" and of imagination as its "great instrument."
