Complete Poems

Autor John Keats Editat de Jack Stillinger
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 1991

Prezentăm o ediție de referință a operei ketsiene, structurată sub forma unui volum cuprinzător care reunește întreaga moștenire poetică a unuia dintre cei mai importanți reprezentanți ai Romantismului englez. Observăm că această ediție, îngrijită de John Barnard, adoptă o abordare cronologică riguroasă, permițând cititorului să urmărească evoluția intelectuală și spirituală rapidă a autorului, de la primele exerciții lirice din 1817 până la marile ode care i-au definit geniul. Premisa acestui volum depășește simpla antologare; el oferă un aparat critic dens, incluzând note detaliate și o introducere academică necesară pentru înțelegerea contextului politic și filozofic al epocii. Structura cărții este concepută pentru a sprijini cercetarea aprofundată, integrând nu doar poemele celebre precum 'Ode to a Nightingale' sau 'La Belle Dame sans Merci', ci și fragmente din corespondența sa privată și adnotările marginale la opera lui Milton. Această bogăție de materiale auxiliare transformă lectura dintr-o experiență pur estetică într-un studiu documentar asupra procesului creativ. Recomandăm acest volum ca o alternativă academică la Selected Poems din Macmillan Collector's Library pentru cursurile de literatură engleză, cu avantajul unei cronologii complete și al includerii textelor care nu sunt disponibile pe scară largă. Față de volumul său final publicat în timpul vieții, Lamia, Isabella, The Eve of St Agnes and Other Poems, prezenta ediție oferă perspectiva de ansamblu necesară pentru a înțelege cum 'exaltarea imaginației' și descrierile senzoriale ale naturii s-au împletit cu întrebări filozofice profunde în scurta, dar intensa carieră a lui John Keats.

Despre autor

John Keats (1795–1821) a fost o figură centrală a celei de-a doua generații de poeți romantici englezi, alături de Shelley și Byron. Rămas orfan la paisprezece ani și pregătit inițial pentru o carieră în medicină, a abandonat chirurgia pentru a se dedica poeziei. Deși opera sa timpurie a fost aspru criticată de contemporani, Keats a rămas încrezător în vocația sa, lăsând posterității capodopere scrise într-un interval creativ de doar patru ani. S-a stins din viață la Roma, la vârsta de 26 de ani, din cauza tuberculozei, lăsând în urmă o operă caracterizată printr-o senzorialitate remarcabilă și o explorare profundă a relației dintre frumusețe și adevăr.


Descriere

Here is the first edition of Keats's complete poems expressly for general readers and students. Stillinger provides explanatory notes to the poems which give dates of composition, identify quotations and allusions, gloss names and words not found in an ordinary desk dictionary, and refer the reader to the best critical interpretations of the poems.

Recenzii

No one else in English poetry, save Shakespeare, has in expression quite the fascinating felicity of Keats, his perfection of loveliness.
