About Romanticism Literature

Romanticism refers to certain writers and writings from the Romantic period (~1760 to 1850) — this is not to be confused with romance/romantic writing.

The major Romantic Poets are: William Blake, William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, John Keats, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and Lord Byron.

The Romantics are identifiable by a number of traits: a degree of radicalism; a commitment to (at least attempting) long forms; and their belief, an almost religious belief, in the power of the human imagination.
