The Calendar of Nature
''The Calendar of Nature'' is a series of articles by Leigh Hunt about aspects of various months and seasons published throughout 1819 in the ''Examiner''. It is also included in his ''Literary Pocket-Book'' and published on its own as ''The Months''. The work places emphasis on the season of autumn as a time for justice and prosperity, and influenced John Keats's poem "To Autumn". The emphasis on both works is on a temperate landscape and the positive political aspects of living in such a place. The work also stresses the sickness that is connected to a temperate landscape, which is related to the physical problems that Keats was suffering from at the time.
==Background==
In 1819, Hunt's ''The Calendar of Nature'' was printed in his periodical the ''Examiner''. The poem describes the artistic connections to each of the months, descriptions of festivals, and a discussion about nature. Hunt also included the calendar in his collection the ''Literary Pocket-Book'', a combination of poems and other material by Hunt and others. The work was first printed in January 1819, and,〔Roe 2005 pp. 308, 313〕 by 1823, there were five collections under the title.〔Holden 2005 p. 134〕 The work was later published in 1821 under the title ''The Months''. The 1821 edition contained a preface which declared, "The good-nature with which this Calendar was received on its appearance in 1819 ... has induced its republication in a separate form, with considerable additions".〔Roe 1997 qtd. p. 266〕 The 1821 edition also included the final two stanzas of John Keats's poem "To Autumn" with the claim that "A living poet has happily personified autumn in some of the pleasantest shapes under which her servants appear".〔
