Keats, John, 1795-1821

John Keats (London, 1795 - Rome, 1821). Although he died young, he is considered one of the most iconic poets of the Romantic period in Britain. Influenced by Edmund Spenser, Keats' poems are characterised by the use of imaginative and melancholic language. Some of his poems, such as Ode to Psyche, Ode on a Grecian Urn and Ode to a Nightingale are now classics of English literature. He died in Rome of tuberculosis.
