Summary "Life of John Keats: His Life and Poetry, His Friends, Critics and After-Fame" by Sidney Colvin is a comprehensive historical account written in the early 20th century. The work dives into the life of the renowned Romantic poet John Keats, exploring his poetry, personal relationships, and the critical reception of his art during his lifetime and beyond. It aims to provide a detailed and engaging narrative of Keats's life, emphasizing the emotional and imaginative experiences that shaped his work. The opening of the volume sets the stage for Keats's life by delving into his early years, beginning with his birth and family background in London, where he emerged from humble beginnings. The narrative outlines his childhood experiences, the influence of his parents, and his education at Enfield School. As the text unfolds, it highlights his growing passion for poetry, the friendships that marked his youth, and the paths that led him to his career as a poet, including his apprenticeship and eventual decision to devote himself entirely to literature. This meticulous introduction paints a picture of Keats as a fiery, passionate individual whose later genius was nurtured by the complexities of his formative years.
