مستخلص المنشور

This study traces Keats’s relationship with the Orient from his first entanglement with it till his last. Such relationship evolves according to changes in Keats’s epistemology. During his empirical stage, Keats’s response to the Orient was inhibited. The shift to a transcendental and imaginative perception of the world increased his literary dependence on the Orient.
