He lost his father at the age of nine and mother at the age of fifteen. In 1811, he became an apprentice to a surgeon at Edmonton. He continued his studies at the London hospital from 1815 to 1817 but he did not like medicine. Finally, he moved to literature. He wrote several sonnets. But it's a matter of sorrow that this young writer had to meet a premature death. He was attacked with tuberculosis and after a few days, he died. Before death as a last hope, in September 1820, he left England for Italy with his friend Joseph Severn and died there in Rome at the age of twenty six, and was buried in the old protestant cemetery. The first funeral of Keats was held in the Parish Church of Hampstead on July 16, 1864.
