The Shelley Memorial is a memorial to the English poet Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822) at University College, Oxford, England, the college that he briefly attended and from which he was expelled for writing the 1811 pamphlet "The Necessity of Atheism".[2][3]
Although Shelley was expelled from the college, he remains one of its most famous alumni and is now held in high honour there.[4] In 2005, the college acquired some of Shelley's letters to further enhance its connection with the poet.[5]
