The Complete Poems de John Keats

The Complete Poems

Autor John Keats Editat de John Barnard
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 27 ian 1977

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 scurtă

Covering the entire output of an archetypal - and tragically short-lived - romantic genius, the Penguin Classics edition of The Complete Poems of John Keats is edited with an introduction and notes by John Barnard.

Keats's first volume of poems, published in 1817, demonstrated both his belief in the consummate power of poetry and his liberal views. While he was criticized by many for his politics, his immediate circle of friends and family immediately recognized his genius. In his short life he proved to be one of the greatest and most original thinkers of the second generation of Romantic poets, with such poems as 'Ode to a Nightingale', 'Bright Star,' 'The Eve of St Agnes' and 'La Belle Dame sans Merci'. While his writing is illuminated by his exaltation of the imagination and abounds with sensuous descriptions of nature's beauty, it also explores profound philosophical questions.

John Barnard's acclaimed volume contains all the poems known to have been written by Keats, arranged by date of composition. The texts are lightly modernized and are complemented by extensive notes, a comprehensive introduction, an index of classical names, selected extracts from Keats's letters and a number of pieces not widely available, including his annotations to Milton's Paradise Lost.

John Keats (1795-1821) lost both his parents at an early age. His decision to commit himself to poetry, rather than follow a career in medicine, was a personal challenge, unfounded in any prior success. His first volume of poetry, published in 1817, was a critical and commercial failure. During his short life he received little recognition, and it was not until the latter part of the nineteenth century that his place in English Romanticism began to be understood, and not until this century that it became fully appreciated.

If you enjoyed Keats's Complete Poems you might enjoy John Clare's Selected Poems, also available in Penguin Classics.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
Already with thee! tender is the night,
And haply the Queen-Moon is on her throne,
Cluster'd around by all her starry Fays;
But here there is no light,
Save what from heaven is with the breezes blown
Through verdurous glooms and winding mossy ways.

Despite his tragically short life, John Keats, a self-confessed "rebel Angel", endures for many as a personification of the Romantic age. While contemporary critics mocked him as a "Cockney poet" and an uneducated lower-class "apothecary" who aspired to poetry, subsequent generations began to see and appreciate both the rich and impassioned sensuousness and the love of beauty and liberty that pervade his work.

From Endymion and Hyperion to 'The Eve of St Agnes', 'La Belle Dame sans Merci' and the Odes, this collection, which presents Keats's oeuvre in chronological order, displays his rapid poetic growth, the development of his philosophical and spiritual beliefs and the voluptuous, silken nature of his verse.

Recenzii

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