His poems had been in publication for less than four years when he died of tuberculosis at the age of 25. They were indifferently received in his lifetime, but his fame grew rapidly after his death. By the end of the century, he was placed in the canon of English literature, strongly influencing many writers of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood; the Encyclopædia Britannica of 1888 called one ode "one of the final masterpieces."' (Wiki) ***'What manner of man was John Keats, and how did he live the life poetic? The answer to these questions lies, it seems to me, within the pages of this volume of his letters. These letters provide the main source from which any adequate record of those few short years of poetic production and any sound appreciation of his personality must derive, and if it be contended that they give a one-sided view of his nature, it may fairly be claimed that he himself was the only person properly equipped to offer the material for a just estimate of his character. (Quote taken from the editor's original preface) ***'The call for a third edition of the book affords the opportunity to include in the addenda three letters which have come to light since 1935. With the permission of the Literary Committee of the Hampstead Borough Council, I also give from the holograph in the Keats Museum George Keats's last letter to John before leaving England for America for the second and last time.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper). ***A second impression of the third edition of this collection of John Keats' letters, in very good condition, in the original dustwrapper. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.
