Abstract
Stewart comments on the poetry of John Keats and Alfred Lord Tennyson and scientific positivism in "The Picture of Dorian Gray" by Oscar Wilde and works by other writers. Stewart finds that Keats in 1819, exploring convulsive vitality in relation to death as he drafted his last two narrative poems, may have drawn his terms from contemporary physiological debates about a life force exceeding all local organic operations.
