Although he died early at the age of twenty-five, John Keats remains a remarkable figure as an English poet. He devoted his short life to the perfection and development of poetry by deploying various innovations in vivid imagery, the diction, the style, thereby expressing the philosophical aspects of life, with a sensuous appeal present in each of his works. His earliest models were Edmund Spenser and the Elizabethan poets. With his first mature poem, a sonnet ‘On First Looking into Chapman’s Homer’, he has set a firm foot in the history of English literature. ‘Endymion’, ‘Hyperion’ and ‘Blackwood’s Magazine’ are some of his notable works.
