He wrote some of the finest romantic poems in the English language, including visionary epics and commentary on the ways of nature, sex, and God. He was considered a threat to authority, often boycotted and suppressed from publication. He hung out with fellow badasses John Keats and Lord Byron.
She wrote essays on subjects beyond her time: equal rights for women, cooperation and sympathy leading to civility, scientific ethics, and the origins of life. She posed a direct challenge to Percy Shelley's views on the way society should be ran, and wrote one of the greatest pieces of horror fiction ever penned, Frankenstein.
They're my favorite Hollywood couple.
