John Keats, “The Eve of St. Agnes” (Part One).  The first of a two-part episode that considers John Keats’ gorgeous poem.  Set in a dreamy medieval world of castles, blood feuds and esoteric folk rituals, Keats gives us a love story with some of the lushest and most opulent imagery in all of English poetry.  However, we begin in a very different atmosphere marked by darkness, death and piercing cold.

We love hearing from all of you. Please email us at ProfessingLiterature@protonmail.com.
