Abstract
The purpose of the present research is to explore the
works of Keats from the uncommon and untraditional
perspective, the perspective of Keats as a revolutionary poet fighting for
the cause of politics and morality. For this purpose, his selected poems
were taken for analysis. His works reveal not only the aspects of
Romanticism but also of revolution. Most of his poems plead for political
and social reforms in a constructive irony of the upheavals through
intentionality. Swept up with the current of revolution and sanguinity, on
one hand, he deplores the contemporary restlessness and stagnation,
but, on the other hand, he is optimistic about the future, where change
and reconciliation were for sure. In this way, the works of the poet
present the present and the past in a relationship, where the past is
allured, the present is struggled for politics and the future is hoped for
imaginatively.
