The Romanticism and the French Revolution & Important Facts
A Brief Introduction
Romanticism–The Romantic Period is the most fruitful period in the history of English Literature. Some of the greatest and most popular romantic poets like Wordsworth, Coleridge, Shelley and Keats belong to this period. William Wordsworth realized that literature or specially poetry become more and more artifical, full for fetched images, similes and metaphors. In 1798 Wordsworth published “The Preface to the Lyrical Ballads” which brought the Romantic Revival. Wordsworth in his preface mentions the three important features of poetry-(i) What is Poetry, (ii) What should be the language of poetry, (iii) What should be the subject matter of poetry. Defining Poetry, Wordsworth writies, “Poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings. It takes its origin from emotion recollected in tranquility.”
“The language of poetry should be the language of ‘the common man.” “The Subject-matter of poetry should be chosen from the
world of nature and the day to day life of the common man. Thus come a revolution in the field of English poetry and this school of poetry come to known as “Romantic School of Poetry.” The French Revolution-The English Romantic movement was much different from the Romantic movement in France and the German Romantic movement.
