Shelley was an [[atheism|atheist]] his whole life and promoted a religion of the imagination.  His epic poem ''Prometheus Unbound'' explores his interest in a renewed imagination/ creative life in the story of Prometheus.  Shelley's principle characters Prometheus, Asia, Jupiter and Demogorgon interestingly bear resemblance to the psychic constructs of other writers including Blake, [[William Butler Yeats|Yeats]] and [[Sigmund Freud|Freud]].  <ref>(Harold Bloom, The Visionary Company: A Reading of English Romantic Poetry, Cornell University, New York 1971, p. 90-91)</ref>
