## A detailed study of John Keats’s classic volume of poetry published in 1820 considered in the light of the history of melancholy * First, book-length critical study of John Keats’s collection of poems, __Lamia, Isabella, The Eve of St Agnes, And Other Poems__ (1820) * Considers the anthology as a poetically and thematically unified collection, instead of the more usual method of analyzing the poems in chronological order of writing * Proposes that the main theme running through the volume is melancholy, a very capacious medical category extending back to ancient Greco-Roman writers, through the Renaissance, and the subject of literary cults in the Romantic age * The first detailed study of Keats’s markings and annotations on his copy of Robert Burton’s __The Anatomy of Melancholy__ (1621) which was his favourite book during 1819 when he was writing the poems This book examines John Keats’s immensely important collection of poems, Lamia, Isabella, The Eve of St Agnes, And Other Poems (1820), and is published in the volume’s bicentenary.
