Keats died the youngest of the great English romantic poets, and his writing career occupied an extraordinarily brief span from his twenieth to his twenty-fifth year. Throughout his creative life he struggled, through reading, through intensive thought and through experiment with different genres and metrical structures, towards the development of his poetics and his personal self. This striving towards maturity, 'by growing away from unreflecting delight in external nature into a wise understanding of the harsher realities of existence' is epitomized in his lines from Hyperion. The poet and the dreamer are distinct... The one pours out a balm upon the world, The other vexes it. Professor Allott's essay traces this traces this process of evolution through a detailed survey of Keats's narrative poems, odes, sonnets and other lyrics; it also discusses the Letters in relation to Keats's personality, his poetic values and his critical ideas. This essay succeeds the late Edmund Blunden's in this series. Professor Miriam Allott succeeded to the Andrew Cecil Bradley Chair of Modern English Literature at University of Liverpool, after the death of her husband Kenneth Allott, the former Bradley Professor. She edited the first annotated edition of the complete poems of John Keats (1970).

"In sum, this original inquiry uniquely respects the cognitional diversity that distinguishes the revelatory poetic spirit from the discursively speculative spirit, even as it demonstrates their deep affinities and mutual implications in the life of the imaginative intelligence."--BOOK JACKET.

A detailed study of John Keats's classic volume of poetry published in 1820 considered in the light of the history of melancholyFirst, book-length critical study of John Keats's collection of poems, Lamia, Isabella, The Eve of St Agnes, And Other Poems (1820)Considers the anthology as a poetically and thematically unified collection, instead of the more usual method of analyzing the poems in chronological order of writingProposes that the main theme running through the volume is melancholy, a very capacious medical category extending back to ancient Greco-Roman writers, through the Renaissance, and the subject of literary cults in the Romantic ageThe first detailed study of Keats's markings and annotations on his copy of Robert Burton's The Anatomy of Melancholy (1621) which was his favourite book during 1819 when he was writing the poemsThis book examines John Keats's immensely important collection of poems, Lamia, Isabella, The Eve of St Agnes, And Other Poems (1820), and is published in the volume's bicentenary. It analyses the collection as an authorially organised and multi-dimensionally unified volume rather than as a collection of occasional poems. R. S. White argues that a guiding theme behind the 1820 volume is the persistent emphasis on different types of melancholy, an ancient, all-consuming medical condition and literary preoccupation in Renaissance and Romantic poetry. Melancholy was a lifelong interest of Keats's, touching on his medical training, his temperament and his delighted reading in 1819 of Burton's The Anatomy of Melancholy.
