romantic poems
Romanticism is a complex artistic, literary, and intellectual movement that originated in the second half of the 18th century in Western Europe, and gained strength during the Industrial Revolution.[1] It was partly a revolt against aristocratic social and political norms of the Age of Enlightenment and a reaction against the scientific rationalization of nature, and was embodied most strongly in the visual arts, music, and literature.....

100% Q: What are some great Romantic poems that would be good to use for pointing out elements of Romanticism?
Ive chosen to write an essay for my British Lit class and the topic is to choose 3 romantic poems (by different writers) and aruge that while all of the poems/writers are Romantic, one of the poems/writers can lay claim to the title of "most Romantic". Any favorites?
A:The key to romanticism is the pointing out of the heroic in man. For instance, Victor Hugo wrote the Hunchback of Notre Dame and that was a Romantic work. So don't think of the term in cheesy love poem garble. Generally the Romantics were at their peak with the mid 1800s through the early 1900s...the age of Nietzsche.
As a philosopher, I would argue that Nietzsche is the best Romantic Poet. I would say Ayn Rand came in a close second. Check out Daybreak by Nietzsche and his final aphorism and you will understand why.
American Romantic poets? Hmmm...I guess "I sing the body electric"/Leaves of Grass - Walt Whitman... far and away the best/most romantic I can think of.
Irish Romantic = William Butler Yeats...Leda and the Swan - an early Romantic...his use of alliteration and assonance is stunning...his ability to wrap man and myth, god and animal in one poem - no less than striking.
Dark Gothic Romantic - Edgar Allen Poe...the middle ground...Raven - you can't go wrong with this guys magic.
There are many like Baudelaire and other Frenchies and Eurofakeries...but they are boring and wrapped in the class struggle and political gambits so much that they lose the hero in their message...
Heroism is the root of Romanticism...if you remember that, this will not have been a waste of your time.

A single place that has alot of it would be nice, that way I can find something nice, and that fits us...

100% Q: Why do people mostly write romantic poems?
Is it because that is what they think most all the time, because they worry about stuff like having a date for the prom, dances, etc., etc., and they don't want to feel badly and embarrassed in the peer groups?
A:I'm not sure. I actually haven't found too many poems about love posted here, or maybe I miss them. Either way, love is a powerful feeling and sometimes it helps to read and write about it. But I agree with you, it can be overdone.
