Lamia is a poem written by the English Romantic poet John Keats. It was first published in 1820 and tells the story of a beautiful serpent-woman named Lamia who falls in love with a mortal man named Lycius. Lamia transforms herself into a human woman and the two begin a passionate relationship. However, their happiness is short-lived as the philosopher Apollonius reveals Lamia's true identity and Lycius dies of shock. The poem explores themes of love, illusion, and the dangers of pursuing the unattainable. Keats's use of vivid imagery and rich language make Lamia a classic example of Romantic poetry.John Keats and Vampires.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
