This accessible, informed, and engaging book offers fresh, new
avenues into Keats's poems and letters, including a valuable
introduction to "the responsible poet." Focusing on Keats's sense
of responsibility to truth, poetry, and the reader, G. Douglas
Atkins, a noted T.S. Eliot critic, writes as an ama-teur. He reads
the letters as literary texts, essayistic and dramatic; the Odes in
comparison with Eliot's treatment of similar subjects; "The Eve of
St. Agnes" by adding to his respected earlier article on the poem
an addendum outlining a bold new reading; "Lamia" by focusing on
its complex and perplexing treatment of philosophy and imagination
and revealing how Keats literally represents philosophy as
functioning within poetry. Comparing Keats with Eliot,
poet-philosopher, this book generates valuable insight into Keats's
successful and often sophisticated poetic treatment of ideas,
accentuating the image of him as "the responsible poet."
