Selected Poems of Keats (Masterpieces of Foreign Literature Series)

John Keats (1795-1821) was born in London in the late 18th century. He was one of the outstanding English poetry writers and a major member of the Romantic School. Keats loved literature since he was a child. Due to his poor family situation, he left school to study medicine when he was less than 16 years old. In 1816, he met famous poets such as Lee Hunter and Shelley and was influenced by them. In November, he abandoned medicine to pursue literature, embarked on the path of poetry creation, and finally became a dazzling star in the British literary world at that time. Keats was very talented, and he was famous for his work with Shelley. He is good at using descriptive techniques to create poems, perfectly combining various emotions with nature, and looking for the shadow of creation from life. His poems can bring people an immersive feeling. He was only 25 years old when he died, but the poems he left behind are well-known in the world. His poems are considered to perfectly embody the characteristics of Western Romantic poetry. Keats is praised as an outstanding representative of the European Romantic movement.
