This article examines Mary Godwin and Percy Bysshe Shelley’s 1814 shared elopement journal, evidencing the initial collaboration between the couple, to trace the ways in which formal elements of the journal’s entries illuminate the interlocked system of collaborative connection and interpersonal identification engaged in by the couple. Tracing the entries as a way of marking the couple’s convergence, and examining Godwin and Shelley’s attempt to redefine themselves from singular individualism to radical pluralism, this article considers the beginnings of a sympathetic collaboration taking place within the journal’s shared pages. The elopement journal supports, in a broader sense, a new understanding of literary collaboration that is necessarily informed by the mechanics of the writing process, illustrated in the formal elements of the prose and textual or marginal traces within the manuscripts. The private circulation of feeling and sympathy within individual entries mimics the physical circulation of texts and ideas between the couple. | |
