About this edition
In the Ode on Melancholy, John Keats found the truth at the heart of all his work: that sorrow and delight are inseparable, that beauty is most piercing because it passes.
This volume gathers the book in which that ode first appeared, Keats's last and greatest, published in 1820, the year before his death at twenty-five. It holds the three great narrative poems, Lamia, Isabella, and The Eve of St. Agnes, and the immortal odes of 1819: to a Nightingale, on a Grecian Urn, to Psyche, to Autumn, and on Melancholy, together the finest flowering of English Romantic poetry.
Keats's complete 1820 volume, freshly typeset with the poems' original indentation preserved, behind an original mixed media cover illustration by JVB Atelier Designs.
