John Keats
John Keats (1795–1821) was an English Romantic poet known for his vivid imagery and emotional depth. His most famous works include "Ode to a Nightingale," "Ode on a Grecian Urn," and "To Autumn," where he explores themes of beauty, mortality, and nature. Despite dying at a young age from tuberculosis, Keats left a lasting legacy through his letters and poetry, which reflect a deep sensitivity to the fleeting nature of life. His work, initially underappreciated, has since become a cornerstone of English literature.
