Keats and Scepticism explores Keats’s affinity with the
philosophical tradition of scepticism and reads Keats’s poetry
anew in the light of this affinity. It suggests Keats’s links
with the origin of scepticism in ancient Greece as recorded in
Sextus Empiricus’s Outlines of Scepticism. It also discusses
Keats’s connections with Montaigne, the most important
Renaissance inheritor of Pyrrhonian scepticism; Voltaire, the
Enlightenment philosophe whose sceptical ideas made an indelible
impact on Keats; and Hume, the most thoroughgoing sceptic after
antiquity. Other than Keats’s affinitive ideas with these
sceptical thinkers, this book is particularly interested in
Keats’s experiments with the peculiar language, forms, modes, and
genres of poetry to convey the non-dogmatic philosophy. In this
light, it re-reads Isabella, ‘La Belle Dame sans Merci’, the
1819 odes, the two Hyperions, King Stephen, and Lamia, all of which
reveal Keats’s self-reflexive and radical sceptical poetics in
challenging poetic dogmas and conventions. This book is for Keats
lovers, students, teachers, scholars, or non-academic readers who
are interested in Romanticism, nineteenth-century studies, or
poetry and philosophy in general. This original, accessible
interdisciplinary study aims to offer the reader a fresh
perspective to read Keats and appreciate the quintessential
Keatsian poetics.
