Poems: Lamia, Isabella, etc. (published in 1820). Posthumous and fugitive poems. Otho the great. King Stephen. The cap and bells. Notes. Index of first lines

Published in July 1820 by Taylor and Hessey, 'Lamia, Isabella, The Eve of St. Agnes, and Other Poems' stands as the final volume of John Keats's poetry published during his lifetime. The collection was conceived during a period of intense creative output, even as Keats battled the onset of tuberculosis, and represents the pinnacle of his Romantic achievement. It gathered his most significant narrative poems, showcasing his shift toward a more mature, disciplined classical style following the mixed reception of his earlier work, 'Endymion'.

The volume was curated to consolidate Keats's literary reputation and was received with notable critical acclaim, particularly by contemporaries like Charles Lamb who recognized the depth of his talent. Despite this success, the publication was overshadowed by the author's declining health and financial instability. The inclusion of the title pieces alongside shorter lyrics serves as a definitive testament to Keats's poetic vision, balancing lush, sensory imagery with the melancholic introspection that came to define his legacy in English literature.
