Description

In late December 1817, when attempting to name what quality went to form a Man of Achievement especially in Literature John Keats coined the term negative capability which he glossed as "being in uncertainties, Mysteries, doubts, without any irritable reaching after fact & reason. Since then negative capability has continued to shape assessments of and responses to Keats's work, while also surfacing in other contexts ranging from contemporary poetry to punk rock. The essays collected in this volume, taken as a whole, account for some of the history of negative capability, and propose new models and directions for its future in scholarly and popular discourse. The book does not propose a particular understanding of negative capability from among the many options (radical empathy, annihilation of self, philosophical skepticism, celebration of ambiguity) as the final word on the topic; rather, the book accounts for the multidimensionality of negative capability. Essays treat negative capability's relation to topics including the Christmas pantomime, psychoanalysis, Zen Buddhism, nineteenth-century medicine, and Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy. Describing the poetical Character Keats notes that it enjoys light and shade; it lives in gusto, be it foul or fair, high or low, rich or poor, mean or elevated. This book, too, revels in such multiplicity. Review "Keats's Negative Capability will... prompt [its readers] to think again and anew and unceasingly on what negative capability was, is, and can become." --Jonathan Mulrooney, Associate Professor of English at the College of the Holy Cross"That this book ranges so richly, so variously, and so widely will be welcome to all readers, not least because it embodies the Shakespearean aspects of negative capability." --Nicholas Roe, Wardlaw Professor of English Literature at the University of St Andrews"[A] wonderfully diverse collection that equally tells the story of Keats while profitably poking and probing the discursive, diffusive, and cultural powers of the term [Negative Capability]... in the spirit of an intelligently designed Keatsian smorgasbord, the collection has something for everyone." --G. Kim Blank, The Wordsworth Circle About the Author Brian Rejack is Associate Professor of English at Illinois State University. Michael Theune is Professor of English at Illinois Wesleyan University.
