Excerpt from Hellas: A Lyrical Drama The drama of Hellas was the last of Shelley's works published during his lifetime. Whilst engaged upon its composition the poet was residing at Pisa, where, early in 1821, he was introduced by his cousin Medwin to Lieutenant Edward Williams - then late of the 8th Dragoons - whose wife, Jane, soon became the object of one of the most earnest of his series of platonic attachments. For the husband also Shelley entertained strong feelings of friendship, and it would appear that it is to his inventive faculty that the "Lyrical Drama" is indebted for its name: - "He [Shelley] asked me yesterday" - wrote Williams in his diary - " what name he should fix to the drama he is engaged with. I proposed Hellas, which he will adopt." The earliest mention of Hellas to be found in its author's published correspondence occurs in a letter addressed to Mr. John Gisborne, and dated Pisa, October 22nd, 1821.
