초록

This essay reveals that John Keats embodied his unique terms such as “Chameleon poet”, “Negative capability” and “Burden of the Mystery”, which are associated with the concept of the human mind and uncertainty, during his walking tour of Scotland in the summer of 1818. A general tendency of criticism on Keats’s walking tour to focus on the psychological crisis has drawn attention to the melancholy and obscurity of the poet’s mind and the sonnets written during the tour. Keats, however, developed a state of mind in which his sense of loss is connected with a type of rhetorical gain through the experience of fear and uncertainty during the tour. Thus, the aim of this essay is to suggest that Keats established a coherent maturity of his poetry by projecting his mode of perception, which highlights man’s existential ability to stay in uncertainties and doubts in reality.

Abstract

This essay reveals that John Keats embodied his unique terms such as “Chameleon poet”, “Negative capability” and “Burden of the Mystery”, which are associated with the concept of the human mind and uncertainty, during his walking tour of Scotland in the summer of 1818. A general tendency of criticism on Keats’s walking tour to focus on the psychological crisis has drawn attention to the melancholy and obscurity of the poet’s mind and the sonnets written during the tour. Keats, however, developed a state of mind in which his sense of loss is connected with a type of rhetorical gain through the experience of fear and uncertainty during the tour. Thus, the aim of this essay is to suggest that Keats established a coherent maturity of his poetry by projecting his mode of perception, which highlights man’s existential ability to stay in uncertainties and doubts in reality.
