Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the mind of the Romantic poet John Keats, analyzing his unique approach to art and his conception of the "poetical character." The author explores Keats's concept of "Negative Capability" - a quality he believed to be essential for great poets. This concept is rooted in the idea that true artistic insight comes not from logic and reason, but from a deep immersion in the world, an ability to empathize with all things, and a willingness to embrace uncertainty and doubt. The book examines the influence of other writers on Keats, such as William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, and William Hazlitt, and how their ideas shaped his own poetic philosophy. Through insightful analysis of Keats's letters and works, the author traces the development of his artistic philosophy, highlighting the importance of personal experience, emotional intensity, and a profound connection to the concrete world. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the mind of one of England's greatest poets and provides a compelling argument for the enduring relevance of Keats's insights into the nature of art and the human experience.
