poems, where he attempts to achieve his goal of creating an “overflow of powerful feelings” (Wordsworth 265). Lyrical Ballads revolutionized the field of poetry, and Wordsworth’s manifesto helped lay the groundwork for many poets throughout the romantic period. He managed this feat by using common language to describe the joys and struggles of the average family. This heightened the emotional response of the reader, along with the reader’s ability to relate to the themes and imagery drawn from nature

Romanticism period The Romantic period beginning was in the end of the 18th century and the begging of the 19th century. However, this date is not accurate because we cannot say when something exactly begins and ends. Romanticism is a reaction against the neo- classical and a literary revolution movement that seeks idealism, equality and democracy in literature. I will discuss The Romantic period characteristics, Wordsworth and the rules of Romanticism and the Romantic poetry. The characteristics

Indeed, Wordsworth' "Preface" to the second edition in which he describes poetry as "the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings" became the manifesto of the first period English Romantic movement in poetry; a period particularly marked by innovations in both content and style and by a preoccupation with the mystical, the subconscious, and the supernatural. On the other hand, the second phase of Romanticism, comprising the period

1783-1830 was the period of the literary movement of Romanticism which was originated in Europe and aroused as a reaction from the Industrial Revolution (“Romanticism”, 2010). Romanticism appeared as a movement which aimed to reject many subjects such as spirits, souls, and instincts from the previous Enlightenment movement and discuss subjects associated with liberalism, radicalism, and nationalism (Nichols, A., 2005).

Dr. Seuss: A Unique Poet Shel Silverstein is unarguably one of the world’s favorite poets. Millions of children have read his greatest classics such as “The Unicorn”, “Hug O’War”, “Ickle Me, Tickle Me, Pickle Me Too”, and “Where the Sidewalk Ends”. His use of balderdash, rhyme, and alliteration draws the attention of these children; nevertheless, there is another children’s poet who is as equally eccentric as Shel Silverstein: Dr. Seuss. Although Dr. Seuss is considered one of the finest influential

The romantic imagination as our book calls it, is truly the result of enlightened thinking, the brutality of revolution and the beauty of democracy. William Wordsworth uses language and his artistic ability to shine light on the revolution to come as well. He

humanitarianism quickly gained popularity. Aiden Day referred to this as ‘The fashionableness of humanitarian sympathy’ (Day 12). Charlotte Smith was one of the many poets to be taken in by the tide of Humanitarianism that gripped writers of the Romantic era and that is pronounced in both her prose and poetry. Although, as Day points out, Smith targeted her writing towards a particular middle-class audience, and therefore wrote to serve them, there is still evidence of her ‘radical leanings’ throughout

Henry Reed’s “Naming of Parts” is a well known poem that displays the important and critical use of diction and tone words within written pieces.Throughout the short poem there is only one speaker, however audiences and readers tend to believe that there are two. “Naming of Parts” is sectioned off into two main parts, the rifle instructor training and a perceptive individual enticed by the Japanese gardens, both deal with (as the title suggests) naming of parts.

I decided to choose Matsuo Basho and Kobayashi poetry for the early modern age period. I chose Masoka Shiki poetry for the modern age period. The early modern age poems I chose were heavily based on nature and human interaction with the use of some nature. The modern age poems I chose both by Shiki there was a shift from the early modern age because of the different influences and of course time period.

For many centuries people have assumed that Romantic poets and authors are adverse or merely incompatible with the natural sciences. This normative view has persisted though the ages and has transformed the way readers interpret and react to Romantic era poetry. Not only has this assumption disillusioned readers, but also it has led many to cripple their perspective and limit their judgment of such poets.
