Keats

Scholarly Paper (Advanced Seminar) aus dem Jahr 1999 im Fachbereich Anglistik - Literatur, Note: 1 - (A-), Universität Stuttgart (Literature Studies), Sprache: Englisch, Abstract: Favourite topics of the ode are God, religion, the state, Art, Nature, truth, love, enjoyment of life, or fame after death. This variety of themes displays that odes can be used for various occasions.Keats' odes are mainly poetic meditations about eternity, permanence, transitoriness and (everlasting) beauty. Some of his odes are therefore connected with mythological topics, and others remind of Wordsworth's concept of Nature.
