>Byron thread up>multiple Blake threads upWell since the English Romantics seem to be in vogue all of a sudden, let's have a Keats thread.I've been trying to memorize "To Autumn" for a while. I'm about a third of the way there, but I'm getting lazy about it.
I have memorized On First Looking into Chapman's Homer and La Belle Dame sans Merci. I gotta do another.
>>24816564>La Belle Dame sans MerciThis is the only poem I've ever read that's genuinely scary. Or, if not scary, then at least creepy. It gives me a feeling of discomfort unlike any other poem I've ever read.
All of his early poetry, apart from "Sleep and Poetry," is kind of weak and I'd say Endymion is a mess, but it's all still so warm and lovely to read
>>24816567I don't want to derail the thread but maybe check out Byron's Darkness. Also the obvious Poe poems.
someone make a John Clare thread
