But perhaps what makes Keats poems very appealing to us, apart from their genuine romantic craftsmanship, would be these two facts: John Keats died at the young age of twenty-six, and most of his life seemed to be a test of separating him from his love of literature (see his biography, also found in this site). These two facts themselves have, of course increased the sense of Romanticism that is associated with Keats poems based on the idealization of John Keats’ devotion to his work; some claim that his love of his poems killed him. Today, Keats poems are never undiscussed when studying the English Romantic Movement, which deals with not only love, but idealization. Keats, as well as Keats poems, very much embodied the English Romantic Movement.
