Book Overview
John Keats was born in London in 1795, probably in October. He died in Rome on 23 February in 1821, and was buried in the Protestant Cemetery, near the pyramid tomb of Caius Cestius. In the following year, Shelley's ashes were laid nearby.
Edmund Blunden has for long been one of the leading authorities on the Romantic poets and writers. His books on Lamb, Leigh Hunt, Keats's publisher, and Shelley are well known, and in each of them he shows that the Romantics of English Literature are his chosen friends.
Mr Blunden's own poetry is in the lyrical vein, and he shares the special gifts of his Georgian contemporaries. His collected poems (1914-30) were followed by a second series (1930-40), Shells by a Stream (1944), After the Bombing, and other Poems (1949) and Poems of Many Years (1957). His last volume, A Hong Kong House appeared in 1966.
