1 | Poems By John Keats (Abridged Nonfictio | John Keats |
John Keats, the last of the Romantic School, was born in 1795 and died at age 25 in 1821. He was a "Poet's Poet", developing his themes from a high artistic faith, and his aesthetic philosophy from his love of beauty. Perhaps the most perfect of the Romanticists, he wrote poetry for its own sake. Here, Margaret Rawlings reads a selection of his finest work, including "To a Nightingale", "Mermaid Tavern", "To Autumn", and "On a Grecian Urn". |
