Beauty

Book Summary by: AcaDemon     


This discusses how the poetry of John Keats inspires readers because of their lyricism, accessibility and imagery. It looks
at how many of Keats' poems focus on beauty as a subject and theme, for beauty is a source of inspiration. It analyzes at how the theme of beauty emerges in several of his more famous works, including "Ode to a Nightingale," "Ode on a Grecian Urn" and "Ode on Melancholy." It shows how beauty is treated as a subject worthy of spiritual discussion and how Keats frequently makes mythological and esoteric references in his poems. Keats treats beauty as one of the mysteries of life, which he seeks to understand through his verses.
