This book, published in 1895 for the centenary of the celebrated
Romantic poet John Keats (1795 1821), was edited by Harry Buxton
Forman (1842 1917). Forman was a Post Office administrator and a
keen literary scholar, who had earlier produced important editions
of Shelley and Keats. He has since become notorious for his
involvement in making fake literary 'discoveries'. This centenary
collection of 214 'racy, lively, inimitably good-tempered' letters
by Keats aimed for completeness and contained several previously
unpublished communications to addressees such as the Jeffrey
family. It includes letters from Keats to his brother George (1797
1841), who lived in America, and to his fianc e Fanny Brawne (1800
65). Forman's edition of the Brawne letters had aroused controversy
when it appeared in 1878, as being too personal for publication.
However, Forman included them in the 1895 collection to help the
reader 'complete the picture of the true Keats'.
