  John Keats survives today as the archetypal Romantic genius who died tragically early. The rapid development of Keats's poetic skills is powerfully displayed in this selection, which includes his first major poem, On First Looking into Chapman's Homer , as well as Endymion , The Eve of St. Agnes , La Belle Dame sans Merci , and The Fall of Hyperion . Throughout, Keats's preoccupying themes of love, art, sorrow, the natural world, and the nature of the imagination magnificently emerge. In his superb Introduction, John Barnard discusses the focus of the anthology, which emphasizes Keats's place as a second-generation Romantic .
