济慈自幼喜爱文学,由于父母相继亡故,家境窘困,不满16岁就离校学医。

1816年,他认识了李·亨特、雪莱等著名进步诗人，受到他们的影响。

11月,他弃医从文,走上了诗歌创作的道路。

终于成为当时英国文坛上一颗光彩夺目的巨星。

济慈创作的第一首诗是《仿斯宾塞》,接着又写了许多优秀的十四行诗,他的这些早期诗作收集在1817年出版的第一本《诗集》中。

1818年,他根据古希腊神话写成的《安狄米恩》问世,全诗想象丰富,色彩绚丽,洋溢着对自由的渴望,表现了反古典主义的倾向。

此后4年是济慈诗歌创作的鼎盛时期,他先后完成了《伊莎贝拉》、《圣亚尼节前夜》、《许佩里恩》等著名长诗,最脍炙人口的《夜莺颂》、《希腊古瓮颂》、《秋颂》等颂诗也是在这一时期内写成的。

济慈诗才横溢,与雪莱、拜伦齐名。

他仅活到25岁就病故了,可是他遗下的诗篇一直誉满人间,被认为完美地体现了西方浪漫主义诗歌的特色，并被推崇为欧洲浪漫主义运动的杰出代表。

大地的诗啊永远不会停：在寂寞的冬夜里，当霜雪织出一片静寂，炉边的蛐蛐尖声吟唱,歌声随着温度上升，使人在睡意朦胧中恍惚听得，绿草如茵的山坡上蝈蝈的歌曲。

•Questions & Answers1.What kind of sonnet is this poem, the Shakespearean or Petrarchan? (See its rhymescheme, please )2.Which season and which insect are talked about in each of the two parts?Answer: the Octave part: summer & the Grasshopper;the Sestet part: winter & the Cricket3. What do you think is the theme of the poem?The music (poetry) of Nature (earth) lasts forever.4. Why of all creatures are the Grasshopper & the Cricket singled out to represent the poetry of earth?They are most unimportant / insignificant /ordinary insects; summer & winter are not as beautiful and full of music as spring & autumn. If even they can reveal the beauty and music of Nature; then other creatures (e.g. the cuckoo bird, nightingale) & seasons--spring & autumn will demonstrate even more beauty & music. So nature is ever beautiful.。
