Life

John Keats was born in 1795 at 85 Moorgate in London, where his father, Thomas Keats, was an hostler. Events Works published William Blake, The Book of Los, The Book of Ahania, The Song of Los, and The Songs Moorgate was a Postern in the London Wall originally built by the Romans London ( ˈlʌndən is the capital and largest urban area in the United Kingdom.

Moorgate station is a London Underground and National Rail station in the City of London, on Moorgate, north of London Wall. Keats was baptised at St Botolph-without-Bishopsgate and lived happily for the first seven years of his life. St Botolph-without-Bishopsgate is a Church of England church in the City of London, dedicated to St Botolph. The beginnings of his troubles occurred in 1804, when his father died from a fractured skull after falling from his horse.

Keats's grave in Rome

Keats's grandmother appointed two guardians to take care of her new "charges", and these guardians removed Keats from his old school to become a surgeon's apprentice at Thomas Hammond's apothecary shop in Edmonton ^[2] (now part of the London Borough of Enfield). Edmonton is an area in the east of the London Borough of Enfield, England, United Kingdom with a long history as a settlement distinct from Enfield This continued until 1814, when, after a fight with his master, he left his apprenticeship and became a student at Guy's Hospital (now part of King's College London). Year 1814 ( MDCCCXIV) was a Common year starting on Saturday (link will display the full calendar of the Gregorian calendar (or a Common King's College London is a British Higher education institution and co-founding constituent college of the federal University of London. During that year, he devoted more and more of his time to the study of literature. Keats travelled to the Isle of Wight in the spring of 1819, where he spent a week. The Isle of Wight is an English Island and county in the English Channel between three and five miles (8 km from the south coast of the Later that year he stayed in Winchester. Winchester or Winton ( archaic) is a historic city in southern England, with a population of around 40000 within a radius of its centre It was here that Keats wrote Isabella, St. Agnes' Eve and Lamia. Parts of Hyperion and the five-act poetic tragedy Otho The Great were also written in Winchester.

Following the death of his grandmother, he soon found his brother, Tom Keats, entrusted to his care. Tom was suffering, as his mother had, from tuberculosis. Tuberculosis (abbreviated as TB for tubercle bacillus or T u' b' erculosis Bacillus --> is a common Finishing his epic poem "Endymion", Keats left to work in Scotland and Ireland with his friend Charles Armitage Brown. Endymion is a poem by John Keats first published in 1818. Beginning famously with the line "A thing of beauty is a joy for ever" Endymion like many epic Scotland ( Gaelic: Alba) is a Country in northwest Europethat occupies the northern third of the island of Great Britain. Ireland (pronounced /ˈaɾlənd/ Éire) is the third largest island in Europe, and the twentieth-largest island in the world Charles Armitage Brown (1787-1842 was born in Lambeth (London on April 14 1787 However, he too began to show signs of tuberculosis infection on that trip, and returned prematurely. When he did, he found that Tom's condition had deteriorated, and that Endymion had, as had Poems before it, been the target of much abuse from the critics. On 1 December 1818, Tom Keats died from his disease, and John Keats moved again, to live in Brown's house in Hampstead. Events 800 - Charlemagne judges the accusations against Pope Leo III in the Vatican Year 1818 ( MDCCCXVIII) was a Common year starting on Thursday (link will display the full calendar of the Gregorian Calendar (or a Common There he lived next door to Fanny Brawne, who had been staying there with her mother. He then quickly fell in love with Fanny. However, it was overall an unhappy affair for the poet; Keats's ardor for her seemed to bring him more vexation than comfort. The later (posthumous) publication of their correspondence was to scandalise Victorian society. In the diary of Fanny Brawne was found only one sentence regarding the separation: "Mr. Keats has left Hampstead. " Fanny's letters to Keats were, as the poet had requested, destroyed upon his death. However, in 1937, a collection of 31 letters written by Fanny Brawne to Keats's sister, Frances, were published by Oxford University Press. These letters revealed the depth of Brawne's feelings toward Keats and in many ways attempted to redeem her rather promiscuous reputation, it is arguable whether or not they succeeded.

Life and Death masks, Rome

This relationship was cut short when, by 1820, Keats began showing worse signs of the disease that had plagued his family. Events Formation of the Apostles a Cambridge University intellectual society John Keats begins showing worse signs of tuberculosis On the suggestion of his doctors, he left the cold airs of London behind and moved to Italy with his friend Joseph Severn. Joseph Severn ( December 7, 1793 &ndash August 3, 1879) was an English portrait and subject painter and a personal friend Keats moved into a house, now a museum dedicated to his life and work, The Keats-Shelley House, on the Spanish Steps, in Rome, where despite attentive care from Severn and Dr. The Spanish Steps ( Italian: Scalinata della Trinità dei Monti) are a set of steps in Rome, Italy, climbing a steep slope between the Rome ( Roma ˈroma Roma is the capital city of Italy and Lazio, and is Italy's largest and most populous city with more than 2 John Clark, the poet's health rapidly deteriorated.

Despite these requests, however, Severn and Brown also added the epitaph: "This Grave contains all that was mortal, of a YOUNG ENGLISH POET, who on his Death Bed, in the Bitterness of his heart, at the Malicious Power of his enemies, desired these words to be Engraven on his Tomb Stone" along with the image of a lyre with broken strings.

Shelley blamed his death on an article published shortly before in the Quarterly Review, with a scathing attack on Keats's Endymion. Percy Bysshe Shelley (August 4 1792 – July 8 1822 ˈpɝːsɪ ˈbɪʃ ˈʃɛlɪ was one of the major English Romantic poets and is widely considered to be among The Quarterly Review, a literary and political periodical founded in March 1809 by the well known London publishing house John Murray. Endymion is a poem by John Keats first published in 1818. Beginning famously with the line "A thing of beauty is a joy for ever" Endymion like many epic The offending article was long believed to have been written by William Gifford, though later shown to be the work of John Wilson Croker. This article is on the 18th—19th century literary figure William Gifford John Wilson Croker ( December 20, 1780 &ndash August 10, 1857) was a British Statesman and Author. Keats's death inspired Shelley to write the poem Adonais. Adonaïs ( Adonaies) (/ædoʊˈneɪɪs/is a pastoral Elegy written by Percy Bysshe Shelley for John Keats in 1821 and widely regarded '; Byron later composed a short poem on this theme using the phrase "snuffed out by an article. " However Byron, far less admiring of Keats's poetry than Shelley and generally more cynical in nature, was here probably just as much poking fun at Shelley's interpretation as he was having a dig at his old fencing partners the critics. (see below, Byron's other less than serious poem on the same subject).

The largest collection of Keats's letters, manuscripts, and other papers is in the Houghton Library at Harvard University. Houghton Library is the primary repository for rare books and manuscripts at Harvard University. Other collections of such material can be found at the British Library; Keats House, Hampstead; The Keats-Shelley House, Rome; and the Pierpont Morgan Library in New York.
