This book is the complete poetical works of John Keats. John Keats (1795-1821) was an English poet. He was one of the most celebrated second-generation Romantic poets together with Percy Bysshe Shelley and Lord Byron, despite the fact that he only produced poetry for four years. This fantastic collection would make for a worthy addition to any bookshelf, and constitutes a must-have for serious lovers of poetry. Contents include: "The Life of Keats", "Endymion: A Poetic Romance", "Lamia", "Isabella", "The Eve of St. Agnes", "Hyperion", "Specimen of an Induction to a Poem", "Caldore: A Fragment", "To Hope", "Imitation of Spenser", "Ode to a Nightingale", "Ode to a Grecian Urn", "Ode to Psyche", "Odes on Melancholy", etc. Many classic books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
Harry Buxton Forman Books
Henry Buxton Forman was a bibliographer and antiquarian bookseller of the Victorian era, whose literary reputation is built upon his bibliographies of significant poets. However, his name is inextricably linked to the exposure of a large-scale forgery conspiracy involving first editions. These revelations cast a shadow over his earlier scholarly endeavors and complicated his standing in literary history. Forman's work thus serves as a cautionary tale about the fragility of the literary market and the importance of provenance.
