This authoritative edition was originally published in the
acclaimed Oxford Authors series under the general editorship of
Frank Kermode. It brings together a unique combination of Keats's
poetry and prose - all the major poems, complemented by a generous
selection of Keats's letters - to give the essence of his work and
thinking.
In his tragically short life Keats wrote an astonishing number of
superb poems; his stature as one of the foremost poets of the
Romantic movement remains unassailable. This volume contains all
the poetry published during his lifetime, including Endymion in its
entirety, the Odes, "Lamia," and both versions of "Hyperion." The
poetry is presented in chronological order, illustrating the
staggering speed with which Keats's work matured. Further insight
into his creative process is given by reproducing, in their
original form, a number of poems that were published posthumously.
Keats's letters are admired almost as much as his poetry and were
described by T. S. Eliot as "certainly the most notable and most
important ever written by any English poet." They provide the best
biographical detail available and shed invaluable light on Keats's
poems.
