Keats concepts link to poems:
Negative capability: Fears – uncertain about his potential + whether will leave a
legacy + what death really is, O Solitude – taking the uncertain risk towards his
future, To Sleep – lack of resolution. Nightingale – wake of sleep? , EOSA-
uncertain fate of lovers, drear-nighted – can never say how it is to be human, KL-
open ending.
Sensations: Nightingale – focuses on art and imagination, inspired by his
surroundings, Sea – physical sensation of being by the sea allows more powerful
thought, EOSA- fantastical poem relies on physical sensation to consider wider
concepts like passion and love, Sleep – desires to fade from physical sensation?,
so solitude – concrete natures allows for abstract thinking.
Mansion of Many apartments – Chapmans – literary reading has opened up new
chambers of thinking, discoveries he’s making but still doesn’t have an answer,
Psyche – we are metaphorically thrown into is mind , Nightingale – moving into
forest imagery, O Solitude – nature elevates transcendence.
Vale of Soul Making – KL – expands intelligence + form his poetic identity, O
Solitude – making a choice of direction, To Sleep – finding what is soothing to the
soul, Fears- outlines intelligence, heart and world, Psyche- being purposeful,
using mind.
Chameleon poet – Drear-nighted – lack of speaker, immersive in exploration of
nature + speaks universally, EOSA – influenced by some of his own desires but
he’s not present at all, explores the subject, Nightigale – immersing himself in
immortality, On the sea – lack of pronouns.
Keatsian Paradox – Drear-Nighted – value of emotion and connection, living each
day individually, warmer times influence cold days in December , Fears – valuing
fragility of life, To sleep – Paradoxical view, EOSA – height of pleasure + mortality
hits, Nightingale – seen as rich to die, beauty from bird makes aware of mortality
