website, click on the ‘Authors’ tab to find all our resources on
John Keats. There’s a suite of articles that shine a light on his
context – from his ideas on ‘negative capability’ to his training
in medicine. Embedded within those articles are vivid contextual
sources – an engraving of Guy’s Hospital, or a copy of The Pantheon
which helped nurture Keats’ interest in Classical myth.
