Sinopsis

One of the greatest English poets, John Keats created an astonishing body of work before his early death from tuberculosis at the age of twenty six. Much of his poetry consists of deeply felt lyrical mediations on a variety of themes, love, death, the transience of joy, the impermanence of youth and beauty, the immortality of art and other topics, expressed in verse of exquisite, originality and sensuous richness. This collection contains thirty of his finest poems, including such favorites as 'On first looking into Chapman's Homer, 'The Eve of St. Agnes,' 'On seeing the Elgin Marbles,' 'La Belle Dame sans Merci,' 'Isabella; or the Pot of Basil' and the celebrated Odes: To a Nightingale, On a Grecian Urn, On Melancholy, On Indolence, To Psyche here from a standard edition, represent a treasury of time-honored poetry that is one of the glories of English verse.
