We can safely assume that a radical politics enlarges, silently and indi–
rectly, the humanitarian dimension of Keats's poetry. But this biography
inadvertently reinforces one's feeling that Keats, in his pained, visionary
world of nightingales, lamias, and urns, kept his politics largely out of sight.
