When he died at the age of twenty-five, having taken a battering from the conservative press, few critics imagined he would be considered one of the great English poets two hundred years later, though he himself had an inkling. In this brief life, Lucasta Miller takes Keats's best-known poems - the ones you are most likely to have read - and excavates their backstories. In doing so, she resurrects the real Keats: a lower-middle-class outsider from a tragic and dysfunctional family, whose extraordinary energy and love of language allowed him to pummel his way into the heart of English literature; a freethinker and a liberal at a time of repression; a human being who delighted in the sensation of the moment; but a complex individual, not the ethereal figure of his posthumous myth. Combining close-up readings of his writings with the story of his brief but teeming existence, Lucasta Miller shows us how Keats made his poetry, and explains why it retains its vertiginous originality and continues to speak to us across the generations." -- Amazon.com. 600 10 $a Keats, John, $d 1795-1821 $x Criticism and interpretation. 600 17 $a Keats, John, $d 1795-1821. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00052274 600 17 $a Keats, John, $d 1795-1821 $x Criticism and interpretation $2 nli 650 7 $a English poetry $y 19th century $x History and criticism $2 nli 650 7 $a Poets, English $y 19th century $v Biography $2 nli 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9781473565920 941 $a 1 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718100213.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E59CE88C214711EEBC7340321FECA4DB 994 $a 92 $b IOHInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
