In the present work the first chapter after introduction focuses on Keats' personal matters expressed in his famous poem "Ode To A Nightingale" and his letters. Then in the following chapter, I have focused on his autobiographical elements found in the very poem "La Belle Dame Sans Merci". Then in the chapter-III I have tried to concentrate on his love for beauty and human heartedness. The poems I have taken into account are certainly a part of the best poetry ever produced in the history of English literature. I have been impressed by and interested in Keatsian poetry since when I read "Ode To A Nightingale" for the very first time. The present research is an illustration of my admiration for his great work and craftsmanship.
