This comparative analysis explores the concept of the sublime in the poetry of Lord Byron, William Blake, and John Keats, providing new perspectives within the Heartfelt evolution. The review deconstructs the profound and philosophical foundations of the sublime through an analysis of each artist's individual work, highlighting the artists' distinctive approaches to outfitting the sublime to evoke extraordinary feelings, prompt existential reflection, and defy conventional norms. The richly woven artwork of the Heartfelt period is enhanced by the exotic and gloomy sublime of Keats, the visionary otherworldliness of Blake, and the often uncertain and defiant translation of the sublime by Byron. Their works captivate with distinct and unmistakable symbolism and continue to influence writing and craftsmanship by providing a sophisticated exploration of nature, otherworldliness, and the human condition.
