Description

This Routledge scholarly work by Rachel Schulkins examines John Keats's innovative reworking of the romance genre and his critique of early nineteenth-century ideals surrounding feminine modesty and asexual femininity. Through detailed close readings of key poems including Isabella; or the Pot of Basil, The Eve of St. Agnes, Lamia and 'La Belle Dame sans Merci,' the author presents a reinterpretation of Keats's poetry that reveals how his sexual imagery counters conservative morality by encoding taboo desires and exploring the pleasures of masturbation. This literary theory study demonstrates Keats's complex presentation of female sexuality and challenges traditional scholarly perspectives on his work. Essential for students of Romantic poetry, literary criticism and gender studies in nineteenth-century literature.

Key Features

Schulkins provides close textual analysis of four major Keats poems to support her argument about sexual imagery and social critique.

The book offers a reinterpretation of Keats that counters conservative moral frameworks prevalent in early nineteenth-century literary discourse.

This Routledge publication addresses literary theory and the history of poetry criticism, making it valuable for academic study and research.

The work explores how Keats encodes taboo desires within his romantic poetry, revealing layers of meaning often overlooked in traditional readings.

Suitable for students of Romantic literature, gender studies and the history of literary movements in British poetry.
