Sobre el autor
John Keats, born on October 31, 1795, in London, England, remains one of the most renowned poets of the British Romantic movement, despite his brief life, which ended at the age of 25. Keats’ poetic legacy is characterized by his vivid imagery, sensuousness, and acute sensitivity to the natural world. His most admired poems include ‘Ode to a Nightingale, ‘ ‘Ode on a Grecian Urn, ‘ and ‘To Autumn, ‘ quintessential examples of Romanticism’s emphasis on emotion and the individual’s connection to nature. Keats trained in medicine at Guy’s Hospital, London, but his passion for poetry prevailed, and he dedicated himself to the craft in 1817. Tragically, his work did not achieve widespread acclaim during his lifetime, largely due to harsh critical reception and his untimely death from tuberculosis in 1821. Subsequently, Keats’s reputation has undergone a significant revaluation, and he is now celebrated for his contributions to English literature. ‘The Life and Times of John Keats: Complete Personal Letters & Two Extensive Biographies’ provides an intimate insight into the life of this literary icon, offering readers a comprehensive view of his personal correspondence and detailing the narrative of a poet whose work has left an indelible mark on the literary landscape.
