"John Keats died at a tragically early age, but during his short life he contributed what have become some of the best-known poems in the English language, such as 'Ode to a Nightingale', 'Ode on a Grecian Urn' and 'To Autumn'." "In this new biography of Keats, Stephen Hebron traces Keats's life and development as a poet, assessing his work in the context of the contemporary social and literary scene. After leaving school, Keats worked as an apprentice to an apothecary, and then went on to train as a surgeon. But it was poetry that dominated his life. He began to move in poetic and artistic circles, counting among his friends and acquaintances Leigh Hunt, Benjamin Robert Haydon, Charles Lamb and Percy Bysshe Shelley and it was not long before his poetry was published regularly. Despite admiration of him by contemporary literary figures, reviewers were not as favorable and in his lifetime the majority of his poetry met with harsh criticism."--BOOK JACKET
