Assembled in 1891 by Sir Sidney Colvin (1845 1927), this collection
of John Keats' correspondence contains 164 letters written to the
poet's family and friends during his short life. Colvin was at
various times Slade Professor of Fine Art at Cambridge, Director of
the Fitzwilliam Museum, and Keeper of Prints and Drawings at the
British Museum. He had a long-standing interest in Keats and
eventually published a biography of the celebrated poet (also
reissued in this series) in 1917. Among the letters included here
are those written to Keats' publisher John Taylor, his sister Fanny
Keats, his close friend Charles Armitage Brown, the artist Benjamin
Haydon, writers John Hamilton Reynolds and Leigh Hunt and many
others, providing a rich insight into the poet's character. The
book also includes an explanatory preface containing background
information and brief biographical sketches of Keats'
correspondents.
