Information
has glosseng: "Julian and Maddalo: A Conversation" (1818-19) is a poem in 617 lines of enjambed heroic couplets by Percy Bysshe Shelley. It was written in the autumn of 1818 at a villa called I Capuccini, in Este, near Venice, which had been lent to Shelley by his friend Lord Byron, and it was given its final revision in 1819. Shelley originally intended the poem to appear in The Examiner, a Radical paper edited by Leigh Hunt, but then decided instead on anonymous publication by Charles Ollier. This plan fell through, and "Julian and Maddalo" first appeared after Shelleys death in a volume of his works called Posthumous Poems in 1824 (see 1824 in poetry), edited by his widow. It is inspired by conversations Shelley had with Byron in Venice in 1818, in which they explored their different outlooks on life.
