Reviews

"Almost everything written in English that even mentions [Keats's] odes seems to have been included and annotated here. The convenience of having so much in one book, together with author and subject indexes, makes this work useful for advanced students. Rhodes . . . is at his best when tracing connections between commentary on the odes and the changing functions of literary criticism in society and in academia over the last century and a half. . . . Probably a must for graduate libraries because of its thoroughness."-Choice
A chronological arrangement of more than 700 critical essays or articles that deal with any one or all of Keats' five major odes . . . this bibliography has entries from 1820 to 1980. All are annotated. There is an Author Index, as well as a Subject Index, the latter including topics both within the text of Keats' odes as well as in the annotations. There is a 34-page introduction, which is essentially a history of the impact of Keats on English literature and especially on literary criticism. . . . Keats's Major Odes will be invaluable to students of Romantic English poetry, and probably no academic library supporting a curriculum in English literature should be without it.-Reference Books Bulletin
