Annotation: One of the most distinctive periods in English poetry was the age of Romanticism, a movement which rebelled against the neoclassical forms and celebrated the imagination as a spiritual force. John Keats was a prominent shaper of this new movement, and as such, he was not without his critics. I think I shall be among the English poets after my death, he soberly prophesied. Indeed, in 1821 Keats suffered an early tragic death from tuberculosis at the age of twenty-five but today is recognized as the archetypal Romantic genius who explored the limits of the imagination and celebrated the pleasures of the senses.
