John Keats (1 gen 1795 anni – 1 gen 1821 anni)

Descrizione:

John Keats was an English Romantic poet and his poems were not generally well received by critics during his lifetime. He was one of the main figures of the second generation of Romantic poets, despite his works having been in publication for only four years before his death from tuberculosis at the age of 25. His reputation grew after his death, and by the end of the 19th century, he had become one of the most beloved of all English poets. He had a significant influence on a diverse range of poets and writers. The poetry of Keats is characterised by sensual imagery, most notably in the series of odes. This is typical of romantic poets, as they aimed to accentuate extreme emotion through an emphasis on natural imagery. Today his poems and letters are some of the most popular and most analysed in English literature.
