John Keats (/ˈkiːts/ 31 October 1795 – 23 February 1821) was an English Romantic poet. He was one of the main figures of the second generation of Romantic poets, along with Lord Byron and Percy Bysshe Shelley, despite his work having been in publication for only four years before his death.
Although his poems were not generally well received by critics during his lifetime, his reputation grew after his death, and by the end of the 19th century, he had become one of the most beloved of all English poets. He had a significant influence on a diverse range of poets and writers. Jorge Luis Borges stated that his first encounter with Keats was the most significant literary experience of his life.
The poetry of Keats is characterised by sensual imagery, most notably in the series of odes. This is typical of romantic poets, as they aimed to accentuate extreme emotion through the emphasis of natural imagery. Today his poems and letters are some of the most popular and most analysed in English literature.

Plot: It's 1818 in Hampstead Village on the outskirts of London. Poet Charles Brown lives in one half of a house, the Dilkes family who live in the other half. Through their association with the Dilkes, the fatherless Brawne family know Mr. Brown. The Brawne's eldest daughter, Fanny Brawne, and Mr. Brown don't like each other. She thinks he's arrogant and rude, and he feels that she is pretentious, knowing only how to sew (admittedly well as she makes all her own fashionable clothes), flirt and give opinions on subjects about which she knows nothing. Insecure struggling poet 'John Keats (I)' (qv) comes to live with his friend, Mr. Brown. Miss Brawne and Mr. Keats have a mutual attraction to each other, a relationship which however is slow to develop in part since Mr. Brown does whatever he can to keep the two apart. But other obstacles face the couple, including their eventual overwhelming passion for each other clouding their view of what the other does, Mr. Keats' struggling career which offers him little in the way of monetary security (which will lead to Mrs. Brawne not giving consent for them to marry), and health issues which had earlier taken the life of Mr. Keats' brother, Tom.

Genres: ,A whistle-stop tour through the life and legacy of John Keats, from his personal troubles to his veneration as a key figure of the Romantic movement. NOTES Note on Keats’ Critical Reception: Out of the work published in his lifetime, only Keats’ final volume was well-received. 'Lamia, Isabella, The Eve of St. Agnes, and Other Poems' (1820) was published just seven months before he died, and was praised in both 'The Examiner' and 'Edinburgh Review'. The positive feedback, however, was rather a case of too little, too late. Keats was already caught in the throes of consumption, and his peers even came to blame the illness on the critical onslaught that he had endured over 'Endymion'. This melodramatic and rather inaccurate myth was perpetuated by Byron (who claimed that Keats was ‘snuffed ...

Please enjoy and subscribe too. Thanks! Byron, Keats and Shelley lived short lives, but the radical way they lived them would change the world. At 19, Shelley wrote The Necessity of Atheism - it was banned and burned, but it freed the Romantics from religion. Through their search for meaning in a world without God, they pioneered the notions of free love, celebrity and secular idolatry that are at the centre of modern Western culture. For them poetry became the new religion, a way of reaching eternity. Their words are brought to life by Nicholas Shaw, Blake Ritson and Joseph Millson.

"Ode to Autumn" a poem by John Keats, read by Janet Harris. Ode to Autumn Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness, Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun; Conspiring with him how to load and bless With fruit the vines that round the thatch-eaves run; To bend with apples the moss'd cottage trees, And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core; To swell the gourd, and plump the hazel shells With a sweet kernel; to set budding more, And still more, later flowers for the bees, Until they think warm days will never cease; For summer has o'erbrimmed their clammy cells. Who hath not seen thee oft amid thy store? Sometimes whoever seeks abroad may find Thee sitting careless on a granary floor, Thy hair soft-lifted by the winnowing wind; Or on a half-reap'd furrow sound asleep,...

A brief (9 minute) audio biography of John Keats written and narrated by John Webster with images of locations associated with the poet. Why 'strangely encouraging? Because Keats: overcame childhood traumas, put those traumas into his creative journey, abandoned a potentially lucrative career to be true to his vocation, turned himself into a world-class poet in a three-year period, arrived at his achievement through determination and false starts as well as instinctive genius, and created a body of work that would eventually secure his place as a poet as great as any of his time.

The Romantic Poets: Keats. Biographical documentary excerpt from "Literary Classics" (UK, 1999) shared for educational purposes. I once shared this excerpt many years ago here at this channel.
Summary of key points... Structure: Written in the ballad form which gives it a strong iambic rhythm and strong rhyme. A passerby asks a sickly knight what’s ailing him and the knight then tells his story. Tone: Forboding tone – ‘sans merci’ means without mercy. A bleak tale; a colourless world is depicted. Use of Language: Poem begins with the narrator asking what ails the ‘hagard’ knight he comes across. Setting is autumn – plants are withering away. Equally, the colour is fading from the knight’s face. The knight explains that he met a fairy-like lady. The imagery is erotic. He “made sweet moan” and found her “fragrant zone.” He then put her on his “pacing steed” . The knight is bewitched. The fairylady speaks words of love in “language strange” Knight is taken to fairylady’s cave – sh...
Stills with audio from the movie "Bright Star" (2009), in which John Keats touches on a key part of his poetic philosophy, a concept he referred to as "negative capability." In a letter (1817) to his brothers George and Tom, John Keats described "negative capability" as, "when man is capable of being in uncertainties, Mysteries, doubts, without any irritable reaching after fact & reason." "With a great poet," Keats continues, "the sense of Beauty overcomes every other consideration, or rather obliterates all consideration."

John Keats: Selected Poems by John Keats http://free-audio-books.info/collection/john-keats-selected-poems/ John Keats is perhaps the most talented poet of the English Romantic Period. Although his life was cut short by disease at the age of 25, he produced some of the most famous poems in world literature. Less erudite and philosophical than Shelley and not so technically versatile as Byron, he displayed a sure poetic instinct and an amazing ability to appeal powerfully to the senses and to the emotions by the brilliance of his diction. Thus his poetry is noted more for exquisite feeling than for thought, but in his particular sphere he was unmatched. His influence upon later poets has been immense. (Introduction by Leonard Wilson)
