As the first major literary publication after Percy’s death, The Last Man was almost a publication of necessity from a financial standpoint given that Shelly had returned to England with the reluctant intention of supporting herself and her only living child, Percy Florence Shelley, through her literary endeavors. In several ways, the death of Percy Shelley in July of 1822 can be seen as the catalyst for the composition of The Last Man. The Last Man is largely shaped by the events of Mary Shelley’s life, and, to a lesser extent, by some of the historical events of Europe during the 1810’s and early 1820’s. ![]() Of Mary Shelley’s literary works, The Last Man can be seen as the not only the most autobiographical, but also as a literary tribute and memorial to her husband Percy Bysshe Shelley, and Lord Byron amongst other members of her coterie. 3 Literary Influences of The History of the Kings of BritainĪnalysis of the Historical Context of The Last Man.2.3 Time and the Sibyl in Mary Shelley’s The Last Man.2.2 Prophetic History And Textuality In Mary Shelley's The Last Man.1 Analysis of the Historical Context of The Last Man. ![]() ![]() So she is shocked when her babysitter, Emira Tucker, is confronted while watching the Chamberlains’ toddler one night.

The book has attracted the attention of those interested in geopolitics due to Quigley's assertion that a secret society initially led by Cecil Rhodes, Alfred Milner and others had considerable influence over British and American foreign policy in the first half of the twentieth century.
