From the notice in the Monthly Review in 1816 to the most recent investigations Alastor has remained an enigma to Shelley's critics. A century of criticism has done little to throw light on the mystery. The contemporary notice in the Monthly Review attributes the confusion of Alastor to the influence of Wordsworth: We must candidly own that these poems are beyond our comprehension; and we did not obtain a clew to their sublime obscurity, till an address to Mr. Wordsworth explained in what school the author had formed his taste.
