The fleeting nature of power and fame.

Explanation:

  • The poem is about powerful people and describes how their power is only temporary. The poet meets a traveler from ancient land. The traveler describes the two large stone legs of a statue.
  • The broken face of the statue had a frown look. Below the statue, it was written, 'I am Ozymandias, the king of kings'.
  • The speaker explains that time not only destroyed the statue but it destroyed the entire kingdom. The ironic meaning is, 'one despairs not at Ozymandias’s power, but at how powerless time and decay make everyone.'

Books were cheaper and affordable to members of the growing middle class. Also, the middle-class people started dictating the literary taste, so there was no need for employing sublime styles and topics that would appeal to the educated aristocracy. In the 16th century, Giorgio Vasari wrote his "Lives of the Artists" - an easily read and extremely interesting account on lives of secular people - the major artists of the age. This book quickly became a bestseller, which means it was read by common people.</span>
