TRANSCRIPT

Keats was one of the most important figures of early nineteenth- century. He is the most

sensuous romantic poet.

Poet’s imagination and observation of nature.

From one object to onther and touch for

the moment the momentary charm of

thing

The picture of season is presented through a series of vivid personifications such as:

“Who hath not seen thee oft amid thy store?Sometimes whoever seeks abroad may findThee sitting careless on a granary floor,The hair soft- lifted by the winnowing wind.”

Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness

In first stanza ,poet presents the Autumn’s vegetative aspects

Bernard Groom says, The perfection and naturalness of this stanza show how deep was Keats’s of finity with the mythological

imagination of Greek

The sights and sounds of autumn ,choir of birds like cuckoo and nightingale, the chirping of cricket, and the whistling of the bird appeal

to the heart of the poet.
