~Keats ♥ Brawne~

Keats' letters to Fanny Brawne are among the most famous and romantic love letters ever written.  They knew each other as next door neighbours and had exchanged passionate short notes occasionally. It seems that Keats was often disturbed by Brawne’s behaviour because of the uncertainty of her affection. She was at first puzzled and annoyed towards him. However, when he was sick, their relationship grew. They were engaged and deeply in love when he left for Rome.

In his letter to Brawne, Keats is fascinated when she wrote that she’ll be kinder to him. His passion grew for her. In his letters, it is clear that Keats is good using the language emotionally to manipulate the words used to describe his miseries if Brawn had ever believed what was told against him. Keats achieves his purpose through his serious and melodramatic tone.
