Lives of the Dead Poets: Keats, Shelley, Coleridge

Lives of the Dead Poets explores the biographical interest that has marked the posthumous reception of John Keats, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and Samuel Taylor Coleridge. It argues that this fascination with the poetic life-a special case of the attachments we form to poetic figures-speaks to the mode of poetry's survival into modernity.
