Pluralist in approach and ranging across Keats’s poetry and letters, this volume brings together historical research on the writer’s schooling in Enfield, the sources of The Eve at St Mark , as well as an innovative discussion of Keats’s writings about America. The work offers insights on Keats’s response to art and on his handling of the epistolary form. The workings of Keats’s poetry are also reconsidered. His treatment of silence is discussed; divisions put to productive use by Keats are emphasized; and the inward Keats is explored in an examination of his poetry’s post-Romantic, American reception.
