A Tribute to Keats’ Sylvan Aesthetics
A Poet’s Masterpiece:
Keats “Ode on a Grecian Urn.”
So raw, yet well-cooked!
About this poem
“Ode to a Grecian Urn “ is a poem composed by English Romantic poet John Keats in 1819. This three-line haiku poem highlights Keats’ five-stanza classical poem about a sylvan urn that tells its own story. The third line of this haiku poem employs the metaphor of “the raw and the cooked,” a term the anthropologist Claude Lévi-Strauss (in 1964) used to classify cultures and civilizations; and which embodies Keats’ own metaphorical use of the term “sylvan” in his framing description of contrasts of the historically old and the historically new. more »
