Summary

"Poems 1817" by John Keats is a poetic journey through the Romantic era, showcasing vivid imagery and lyrical language to capture the essence of nature, beauty, love, and the role of the artist. Within these poems, readers are transported into intimate observations of the natural world, mirroring intense feelings of yearning and transcendence, while hope, love, and the pursuit of beauty take center stage in pieces like “To Hope” and “Calidore.” These pieces communicate a profound longing for connection with both nature and humanity, as the poet contemplates life's fleeting nature through his masterful use of language and exploration of human emotion.

About the Author

John Keats was an English poet of the second generation of Romantic poets, along with Lord Byron and Percy Bysshe Shelley. His poems had been in publication for less than four years when he died of tuberculosis at the age of 25. They were indifferently received in his lifetime, but his fame grew rapidly after his death. By the end of the century, he was placed in the canon of English literature, strongly influencing many writers of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood; the Encyclopædia Britannica of 1888 called one ode "one of the final masterpieces".
