Keats is one of the major figures in the second generation of Romantic Poets and was considered by Tennyson to be the greatest poet of the nineteenth century. The preoccupying themes of Keats' poetry are love, art, sorrow, the natural world and thenature of the imagination. However, his poetry is often also indirectly critical of conventional political, religious, and sexual beliefs. This collection contains pieces from different periods in his short life, from his earliest verse to his later unpublished poems. It also includes his best-loved works, such as The Eve of St Agnes, Lamia, and the Odes, and extracts from Endymion.

About the Author
John Keats (1795-1821) was apprenticed to a surgeon when he decided to commit himself to poetry. His genius was recognised and encouraged by his friends, but it was not until after his death that his place in English Romanticism was fully acknowledged.
John Barnard is Professor of English Literature at the University of Leeds and is the editor of THE COMPLETE POEMS of Keats in the Penguin English Poets series.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Sehr gut. Auflage: Reissue. 256 Seiten Fresh and clean copy in good condition. Frisches und sauberes Exemplar in gutem Zustand. "John Keats survives today as the archetypal Romantic genius who died tragically early. The rapid development of Keats's poetic skills is powerfully displayed in this selection, which includes his first major poem, "On First Looking into Chapman's Homer", as well as "Endymion", "The Eve of St. Agnes", "La Belle Dame sans Merci", and "The Fall of Hyperion". Throughout, Keats's preoccupying themes of love, art, sorrow, the natural world, and the nature of the imagination magnificently emerge. In his superb Introduction, John Barnard discusses the focus of the anthology, which emphasizes Keats's place as a "second-generation Romantic"."
