I am printing that first part out and sticking it in the front of my English coursework folder! ^^ That really made me laugh. Unfortunately, when I go to University I will have even more to do with Romantic poets, particularly if I get into Warwick... I suppose I bring it on myself, really.
I love most of Keats' sonnets, particularly '...Homer' and 'On Sitting Down to Read King Lear Once Again'. I love the odes as well-- they just seem more original and personal, and that's when his genuine talent comes out. But I'm getting sidetracked.
That's an interesting metaphor of Jack and the Pearl-- and one that fits so well. The ships really are very intriguing characters, and writing from their points of view is so fresh in a fandom that is, for the majority, not that full of decent fanfiction. Luckily, there are some real gems out there!
