    Hi, anyone know where I can find any, or possibly could anyone throw down 3/4 bullet points on the imagery used in Keats' poems??

    Many thanks:D

    There is a website All Honours. Its an Irish site. Try that. Failing that there is a world of poetry books out there with sample answers. Buy one.

    Ummm from what I remember Beaux1 posted some notes on Keats ages ago... I can't remember what's in them , but they're probably worth a look anyway!

    Aha, found it...

    Could Anyone explain this please?
    Its not in Beaux1's notes but...
    Keats remarks that
    ‘Beauty is truth and truth beauty, - that is all
    Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know’.
    Here he can be taken to say that pain beautiful and that it is thus the only thing real. However because beauty is linked to pain (which makes it beautiful) ironically this takes away from its beauty simultaneously.

    I just really dont get it!
