“Keats’s Reading / Reading Keats is a gathering of seventeen chapters that celebrate not just Keats, but also Jack Stillinger, who passed away in 2020. This memorial volume is, then, not intentionally set off by the various Keats bicentenaries, but it does act as a kind of capstone to them. … Keats’s Reading / Reading Keats is divided into four topical sections, which are fully diverse within themselves … .” (G. Kim Blank, European Romantic Review, Vol. 34 (4), August, 2023)
