Rezensionen
In this original and important monograph, Li Ou presents compelling evidence that Keats in his letters and poems builds upon the ancient and Enlightenment tradition of scepticism. This chimes with his own habitual, 'equipollent' modes of thought, tempering his 'ardent' idealism and sensuousness with intellectual doubts and 'vexing speculations'.

Robert S. White, Emeritus Professor, The University of Western Australia

A deeply researched and enjoyably accessible new study of Keats, strikingly original in its perspectives on the poet's intellectual affinity with the sceptical tradition in philosophy. The argument is complemented by fresh and insightful readings of the poetry, and underpinned by persuasive reflection on the presence of philosophical scepticism in Keats's Romantic milieu. This book changes the terms of reference for our understanding of Keats as a thinker.

Kelvin Everest, Emeritus A. C. Bradley Professor of Modern Literature, University of Liverpool
