John Keats: Selected Poems

Autor John Keats Frederick Davidson
en Limba Engleză CD-Audio – 31 mai 2013
One of the most distinctive periods in poetry occurred in England early in the 1800s. This is now referred to as the age of romanticism, a movement which rebelled against the neoclassical forms and celebrated the imagination as a spiritual force. John Keats was a prominent shaper of this new movement, and as such, he was not without his critics. "I think I shall be among the English Poets after my death," he soberly prophesied. Indeed, Keats suffered an early tragic death of tuberculosis at the age of twenty-five but today is recognized as the archetypal romantic genius who explored the limits of the imagination and celebrated the pleasures of the senses. Unlike Shelley, Keats was not a political poet; his prime passion was for art. His muse was the goddess of beauty and truth, and his worship of her found its finest expression in his immortal odes, which stand unique in literature, unexcelled in perfection. The poems collected here are: 1. "Oh Chatterton How Very Sad Thy Fate" 2. "O Solitude If I Must with Thee Dwell" 3. "To One Who Has Been Long in City Pent" 4. "On First Looking into Chapman's Homer" 5. "To My Brothers" 6. "Great Spirits Now on Earth Are Sojourning" 7. "On the Grasshopper and Cricket" 8. "After Dark Vapours Have Oppressed Our Plains" 9. "On Seeing the Elgin Marbles" 10. "On the Sea" 11. A Selection from "Endymion" 12. "To Mrs. Reynolds' Cat" 13. "On Sitting Down to Read King Lear Once Again" 14. "When I Have Fears That I May Cease to Be" 15. "Lines on the Mermaid Tavern" 16. "O Thou Whose Face Hath Felt the Winter's Wind" 17. "For There's Bishop's Teign" 18. "On Visiting the Tomb of Burns" 19. "Old Meg She Was a Gipsey" 20. "This Mortal Body of a Thousand Days" 21. "There Is a Joy in Footing Slow across a Silent Plain" 22. "The Eve of St. Mark" 23. "Why Did I Laugh Tonight? No Voice Will Tell" 24. "Bright Star, Would I Were Stedfast as Thou Art" 25. "Hyperion: A Fragment" (Book I), II, and III) 26. "Hyperion: A Fragment" (Book I, continued; Book II, Book III) 27. "La Belle Dame sans Merci: A Ballad" 28. "Sonnet to Sleep" 29. "Ode to Psyche" 30. "Ode to a Nightingale" 31. "Ode on a Grecian Urn" 32. "Ode on Melancholy" 33. "Ode on Indolence" 34. "Lamia" (Part I) 35. "Lamia" (Part I, continued; Part II) 36. "To Autumn" 37. "The Fall of Hyperion: A Dream" 38. "This Living Hand, Now Warm and Capable"

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
This authoritative edition was originally published in the acclaimed Oxford Authors series under the general editorship of Frank Kermode. It brings together a unique combination of Keats's poetry and prose - all the major poems, complemented by a generous selection of Keats's letters - to give the essence of his work and thinking.In his tragically short life Keats wrote an astonishing number of superb poems; his stature as one of the foremost poets of the Romantic movement remains unassailable. This volume contains all the poetry published during his lifetime, including Endymion in its entirety, the Odes, 'Lamia', and both versions of 'Hyperion'. The poetry is presented in chronological sequence, illustrating the staggering speed with which Keats's work matured. Further insight into his creative process is given by reproducing, in their original form, a number of poems that were published posthumously.Keats's letters are admired almost as much as his poetry and were described by T. S. Eliot as 'certainly the most notable and most important ever written by any English poet'. They provide the best biographical detail available and shed invaluable light on Keats's poems. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

Recenzii

among the many virtues of this edition is the fact that it puts the question of Keats and politics high on the agenda.
there is much to recommend Elizabeth Cook's carefully devised and generously inclusive edition.

Notă biografică

John Keats (1795–1821) abandoned a career in medicine to write poetry, until his life was cut tragically short from tuberculosis at the age of twenty-five. By that time, he had published three volumes of verse to an unreceptive critical response. But, as the nineteenth century wore on, Keats' reputation would build, and today he is recognized as one of the greatest of the Romantic poets.
