| | John Keats - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | His introduction to the work of Edmund Spenser, particularly The Faerie Queene, was to prove a turning point in Keats' development as a poet; it was to inspire Keats to write his first poem, Imitation of Spenser. |  | | Keats developed his poetic theories, chief among them Negative Capability and The Mansion of Many Apartments, in letters to friends and family. |  | | Finishing his epic poem "Endymion", Keats left to hike in Scotland and Ireland with his friend Charles Brown. |

| | A Biographical Sketch by blupete: John Keats (1795-1821). |
 | | Keats (if that be his real name, for we almost doubt that any man in his senses would put his real name to such a rhapsody) -- it is not, we say, that the author has not powers of language, rays of fancy, and gleams of genius. |  | | John Keats at this point was a very sick man. 53 Keats poetry writing days were over. |  | | Keats, it would certainly appear from his correspondence at the time, couldn't have treated this attack in a more self-possessed, measured, and dignified spirit. |

 | | The subject of “Hyperion” is the fall of the primeval Greek gods, who are dethroned by the Olympians, a newer order of gods led by Apollo. |  | | Keats used this myth to represent history as the story of how grief and misery teach humanity compassion. |  | | His abandonment of the poem suggests that Keats was ready to return to a more personal theme: the growth of a poet's mind. |

| | Introduction to Keats |
 | | Keats, dying, expected his poetry to be forgotten, as the epitaph he wrote for his tombstone indicates: "Here lies one whose name was writ in water." But nineteenth century critics and readers did come to appreciate him, though, for the most part, they had only a partial understanding of his work. |  | | They saw Keats as a sensual poet; they focused on his vivid, concrete imagery; on his portrayal of the physical and the passionate; and on his immersion in the here and now. |  | | With the twentieth century, the perception of Keats's poetry expanded; he was and is praised for his seriousness and thoughfulness, for his dealing with difficult human conflicts and artistic issues, and for his impassioned mental pursuit of truth. |

 | | The English poet John Keats (1795-1821) stressed that man's quest for happiness and fulfillment is thwarted by the sorrow and corruption inherent in human nature. |  | | The imaginative beauty of Spenser's world of fantasy fulfilled some romantic yearning in his adolescent mind, and he was even more impressed by the poet's mastery of language as evidenced in the aptness and the sensory intensity of his imagery. |  | | The same cannot be said of Endymion: A Poetic Romance, to the writing of which Keats devoted most of his time from April to December 1817 and which appeared in May 1818. |
