the word grandeur is associated with the mighty dead as they must hav ben powerful people in thr own ways and will be given their right status and great position on the doomsday the last day of the existence of the world in a great and beautiiful way
In the poem "A Thing of Beauty" by John Keats, 'grandeur' is associated with the 'mighty dead' because it suggests that the greatness and beauty of nature outlives human mortality. The 'mighty dead' refers to great figures from the past who have achieved a kind of immortality through their legacy, much like the enduring beauty of nature described in the poem.Keats is highlighting the eternal quality of beauty and its ability to transcend time and death.
And such too is the grandeur [nobility or greatness of character] of the dooms [the end, death, destruction] In an earlier line, the poet says, 'Some shape of beauty moves away the pall From our dark spirits..' Similarly, death is the sad end but what makes the mighty dead immortal in spite of death is their 'grandeur' which is nobility or greatness of character and deeds. Even though they are dead, they continue to inspire in us greatness and nobility. [By Rajesh Dutta, HOD, English Department, Suncity World School, Gurgaon.]
He writes and identifies beauty with truth. Of all the contemporary poets Keats is one of the most inevitably associated with the love of beauty. He was the most passionate lover of the world as the career of beautiful images and of many imaginative associations of an object or word with a heightened emotional appeal. Poetry, according to Keats, should be the incarnation of beauty, not a medium for the expression of religious or social philosophy. Keats loved 'the mighty abstract idea of Beauty in all things'. He could see Beauty everywhere and in every object. Beauty appeared to him in various forms and shapes-in the flowers and in the clouds, in the hills and rills, in the song of a bird and in the face of a woman, in a great book and in the legends of old. Beauty was there in the pieces of stone with carvings thereon. He hated didacticism in poetry. For the poetry itself was beauty so he wrote, "We hate poetry that has a palpable design upon us." 'The lines of his poem 'Endymion' have become a maxim:"A thing of beauty is a joy for ever:Its loveliness increases; it will neverPass into nothingness"

beauty is truth and truth is real beanty
This phrase comes from John Keats' "Ode on a Grecian Urn" and suggests that beauty and truth are interconnected and fundamental to art and life. It reflects the idea that true beauty is found in things that are genuine, authentic, and honest. Keats believed that by seeking and embracing truth, one can experience the purest forms of beauty.
John Keats was a poet of passion; a poet of beauty; a poet of his poetry. He did not care to philosophize his poetry and making any aid to the world's knowledge that was nothing but 'bald head' science that could never see beauty in the eyes of the ugliest creature. John Keats always desired to reveal the most lustrous tresures of the hidden 'Urn' of beauty to the world. He tries his best in the paradoxical closing: "'Beauty is truth, truth beauty' that is all Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know."
The last two lines of "Ode on a Grecian Urn" by John Keats are: "Beauty is truth, truth beauty,βthat is all / Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know."
