Q2. Highlight the salient features of Romanticism with illustrations from the poems prescribed for study.
Answer. The Romantic revival refers to a period from the late eighteenth century through 1832 in which poets, writers, and artists across Europe, but particularly in Germany and England, reacted against the Neoclassicism that preceded them. Neoclassical poetry was rooted in Greek and Roman models and used strict forms, such as carefully metered rhyming couplets in poetry.
It valued balance and emotional restraint and tended to concentrate on the deeds of great men. The Romantics rebelled against all this, seeking a greater emphasis on emotions, experimenting with freer verse (or artistic) forms, and focusing attention on common people and nature. In poetry, the movement is most strongly associated with Goethe in Germany and Wordsworth and Coleridge in England.
