The (Christmas) Eve of St Agnes


Tomorrow, we'll be building on our study of Keats by diving headlong into the juicy long narrative of The Eve of St Agnes. We'll read this in the light of our study of La Belle Dame Sans Merci, looking to compare the two to establish characteristic features of Keats' style, themes and techniques. It's a lovely poem- the following link might help you to revise and review it: http://academic.brooklyn.cuny.edu/english/melani/cs6/st_agnes.html - it is quite lengthy, so we won't be able to cover every aspect in class and you'll need to consolidate our work with independent review- we'll discuss the detail of this together.
See you then!
Mr Boulter
