John Keats Week 7

John Keats ( ) Born: October 31, 1795 Moorfields, London, England Died: February 23, 1821 Rome, Italy

John Keats The excellence of every art is its intensity, capable of making all disagreables evaporate from their being in close relationship with Beauty and Truth."

Beauty (from Endymion) A THING of beauty is a joy for ever: Its lovliness increases; it will never Pass into nothingness; but still will keep A bower quiet for us, and a sleep Full of sweet dreams, and health, and quiet breathing.

John Keats

Grecian Urn

a reflection on the pleasure and beauty of an Urn

Eternity The poet sees the Urn as an embodiment of permanence, thriving in the passing of time, “Thou foster-child of silence and slow time, /Sylvan historian, who canst thus express /A flowery tale.” Keats

"Ode on a Grecian Ode" is based on a series of paradoxes and opposites:paradoxes the discrepancy between the urn with its frozen images and the dynamic life portrayed on the urn, the human and changeable versus the immortal and permanent, participation versus observation, life versus art.
