The Triumph of Life was Shelley’s last major work before his death in 1822. Composed in the Italian terza rima, the work is a visionary meditation on the nature of being and reality, mixing dream-vision with the chaos of history. Nearly two centuries after its writing, the work has been translated into Bengali, for the first time, by eminent scholar Malini Bhattacharya. The translation is accompanied by an introductory essay by the translator, as well as a detailed critical apparatus.
