Jerrold E. Hogle 
Shelley’s Process [PDF ebook] 
Radical Transference and the Development of His Major Works

In this set of thorough and revisionary readings of Percy Bysshe Shelley’s best-known writings in verse and prose, Hogle argues that the logic and style in all these works are governed by a movement in every thought, memory, image, or word-pattern whereby each is seen and sees itself in terms of a radically different form. For any specified entity or figure to be known for "what it is, " it must be reconfigured by and in terms of another one at another level (which must then be dislocated itself). In so delineating Shelley’s "process, " Hogle reveals the revisionary procedure in the poet’s various texts and demonstrates the powerful effects of "radical transference" in Shelley’s visions of human possibility.
