Keats' Odes to Psyche and to a Nightingale
Saturday May 04, 2013
Saturday May 04, 2013
Last class of the term, on Keats. Voyeurism in the Ode to Psyche. The latest gods. The faded Olympians like the faded Titans in the Hyperion poems. The temple in the mind is for Psyche; the temple is the psyche. Like the young Apollo, the new poet displaces the old tradition - the figure of youth as poet, as in Stevens. Casements and other worlds in both poems.
