More about the book
This pastoral elegy, composed by Percy Bysshe Shelley in 1821, mourns the death of poet John Keats. Spanning 495 lines across 55 stanzas, it reflects Shelley's deep admiration for Keats and is influenced by classical elegies, particularly Virgil's tenth Eclogue. Written shortly after learning of Keats' passing, the poem aligns with the English tradition exemplified by Milton's "Lycidas," showcasing Shelley's lyrical prowess and emotional depth as he grapples with loss and celebrates Keats' artistic legacy.
