I really think he led with Ne, supported by high aux Fi, and did not have inferior Te, but inferior Si. Imaginative possibilites, metaphores, idealistic visions are all his work is about. He had an emotional, experimental (he adored science), radical-nonconformist mind. He could not stand political, religious, societal dogmas, anything that was bigoted, considered part of convention and traditional authority in any form. He was an active reformist, a sceptic, obsessed with a progress of society that would make the world finally right and functional, without tyranny, corruption and violence. His essays are all about this topic. Even taking into consideration his view of poetry, he thought that though based on Imagination, its ultimate goal (and utility) was actually the transformation of opinions and institutions. He also believed poetry is a form of perception of the world that frees the poet from the background reference of his impressions. “All things exist as they are perceived: at least in relation to the percipient. „The mind is its own place, and of itself can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven.“ [quoting John Milton], but poetry defeats the curse which binds us to be subjected to the accident of surrounding impressions. And whether it spreads its own figured curtain or withdraws life's dark veil from before the scene of things, it equally creates for us a being within our being. It makes us the inhabitants of a world to which the familiar world is a chaos. It reproduces the common universe of which we are portions and percipients, and it purges from our inward sight the film of familiarity which obscures from us the wonder of our being. It compels us to feel that which we perceive, and to imagine that which we know. It creates anew the universe, after it has been annihilated in our minds by the recurrence of impressions blunted by reiteration.” About the fact that he was described as "shy": as the comment below mine mentions, there's a difference between cognitive and social extroversion, and the typical description of the latter is often faulty when applied to ENFPs. Also, it's important to consider he was heavily bullied in school, exactly because his ideas made him so different (they called him 'mad Shelley, the atheist'), then as an adult scandal followed him because of his personal life, so of course he wasn't exactly popular, though he created his own group of close friends. Among them another poet with inferior Si: Lord Byron. They inspired each other because they were different from other Romantic poets (Wordsworth, Coleridge, Keats) who were not as deeply rebellious and revolutionary as they were.
Biografie
Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822) was one of the major English Romantic poets, who is regarded by some as among the finest lyric and philosophical poets in the English language, and one of the most influential. Radical in his poetry as well as in his political and social views, Shelley did not achieve fame during his lifetime, but recognition of his achievements in poetry grew steadily following his death and he became an important influence on subsequent generations of poets including Robert Browning, Algernon Charles Swinburne, Thomas Hardy, and W. B. Yeats.
