John Keats: Selected Poems by John Keats (1795 - 1821)

0

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)

    Thank you for doing this. I wondered if it was possible to listen to well recited poetry as a podcast, and was especially looking for Ode on a Grecian Urn. So pleased to find this and listened to it, and more. Beautiful.
