Detailed explanation-1: -John Keats wrote sonnets, odes, and epics. All his greatest poetry was written in a single year, 1819: “Lamia, ” “The Eve of St. Agnes, ” the great odes (“On Indolence, ” “On a Grecian Urn, ” “To Psyche, ” “To a Nightingale, ” “On Melancholy, ” and “To Autumn”), and the two unfinished versions of an epic on Hyperion.
Detailed explanation-2: -Although he died at the age of twenty-five, Keats had perhaps the most remarkable career of any English poet. He published only fifty-four poems, in three slim volumes and a few magazines.
Detailed explanation-3: -His brother’s financial woes continued to loom over him, and, as a result, Keats had little energy or inclination for composition, but, on 19 September 1819, he managed to compose To Autumn, his last major work and the one that rang the curtain down on his career as a poet.
Detailed explanation-4: -John Keats (31 October 1795 – 23 February 1821) was an English poet of the second generation of Romantic poets, with Lord Byron and Percy Bysshe Shelley. His poems had been in publication for less than four years when he died of tuberculosis at the age of 25.
