Chronologies

An annotated hypertext timeline of important
dates in the life and work of Percy Bysshe Shelley, this chronology
is designed to function both as a stand-alone resource and
in conjunction with The Romantic Chronology
at UC Santa Barbara. |

This resource provides a detailed chronology
of Mary Shelley's life and work, as well as several contemporary
reviews of her novels and of a play inspired by Frankenstein. |

The Byron Chronology
is a searchable hypertext chronology of important dates in
the life of George Gordon, Lord Byron. It draws almost exclusively
from Leslie Marchand's standard three-volume biography of
Byron's life, with some additions from the material in Marchand's
edition of Byron's Letters and Journals. |

In August 2001, Roger Meyenberg and Patrick
Vincent hiked Wordsworth's route over the Simplon Pass, as
described in Book VI of The Prelude. Their goal was
to establish, of several reconstructed versions of the hike,
which route Wordsworth and Robert Jones most likely followed.
Includes their narrative and photographs of the pass today. |
