John Keats was born in 1765 in London, the first child born to a poor family. After leaving school, Keats went on to be an apprentice(学徒) for a surgeon. After his father died in a riding accident, and his mother died of tuberculosis(肺结核), John and his brothers moved to Hampstead where Keats met Charles Brown who would become a great friend.

Keats had his poems published in the magazines of the day with the encouragement of many friends. Despite the impolite responses towards his early poems, Keats’s literary gift prevailed. That same year Keats met Percy Bysshe Shelley who would also become a great friend. When Shelly invited the sick Keats to stay with him and his family in Italy, he refused politely.

In 1818, he traveled to the Lake District of England and on to Ireland and Scotland on a walking tour with Brown. While he was not aware of the seriousness of it, Keats was suffering from the first stage of tuberculosis. His brother Tom died of tuberculosis that year. After that Keats lived with Brown. Around this time Keats fell in love with, and became engaged(订婚) to eighteen-year-old Fanny Brawne. While their relationship led to much spiritual development for Keats, it also proved to be filled with the highs and lows of first love due to jealousy and stupidity. Many people once believed that Fanny was the cause of his illness, or that she used it as an excuse to try to keep herself away from him. For a while even Keats felt happy with the possibility that he was merely (仅仅) suffering from emotional anxieties—but after suffering a hemorrhage(吐血) he agreed to break their engagement.

At the beginning of 1820 Keats started to show more signs of tuberculosis. His poem Ode to a Nightingale records all the pain and suffering that Keats experienced during his short lifetime: the death of his mother; the physical suffering he saw as a young apprentice caring for the sick and dying; the death of his brother; and finally his own physical and spiritual suffering in love and illness.

John Keats died on 23 February 1821 in Rome, Italy, and now rests near his friend Shelly. His epitaph(碑文)reads ‘Here lies one whose name was writ in water.’

Keats inspired numerous other authors, poets, and artists, and remains one of the most widely read and studied 19th-century poets.
