John Keats

John Keats was a prominent English Romantic poet known for his rich imagery and exploration of beauty, emotion, and the human experience. His work often reflects the idea that art should evoke feelings and provoke thought, emphasizing sensory experience and the fleeting nature of life. Keats believed in the concept of "negative capability," which is the ability to embrace uncertainty and ambiguity in art. His poetry celebrates the interplay between love, nature, and the transience of existence, making profound connections between language, emotion, and aesthetic experience that continue to resonate in literature today.
