The content of this book is based on Greek mythology and the tragic works of the ancient Greek poet Aeschylus. It tells the story of Prometheus who helped Jupiter win the throne of the Emperor of Heaven, but after Jupiter came to the throne, he actually wanted to destroy mankind. Prometheus protected mankind against Jupiter, stole the fire of wisdom for mankind, and taught them all skills and technologies. Jupiter retaliated with vicious means and tied Prometheus to the Caucasus Mountains. During the day, vultures pecked at his internal organs. At night, those internal organs grew again, causing endless pain... As a passionate and unrestrained singer of freedom, in "Prometheus Unchained", Shelley showed his innovative spirit and praise of justice with extremely high creativity.
