“Keats, America, & Aesthetic Realism”

John Keats is safe in history now, his poetry alive as ever. What is it about his work that makes it so alive, so stirring? And what made for the narrowness and cruelty of the critics of his own time, who could not see the value of Keats’ work—its newness, its excitement about beauty wherever he saw it?

As an English teacher, and a human being, I can’t recommend it highly enough.
