Life of John Keats: His Life and Poetry, His Friends, Critics and After-Fame
John Keats: His Life and Poetry, His Friends, Critics and After-Fame was published in 1917 by Sidney Colvin, who had written a short life of the poet thirty years earlier and now set out to give a full, connected account. Drawing on letters and recollections that had come to light since, Colvin follows Keats from his childhood and medical training through his friendships with Leigh Hunt, Haydon and Charles Brown, the hostile reviews, his love for Fanny Brawne and his death in Rome, reading the poems closely as he goes. The closing chapters trace how his reputation grew after his death. The full text is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, and the opening pages are free.
