Response #2 - Romanticism

Romanticism was a different type of event in history where writers used their emotions in order to create a piece of art. Romanticism in poetry has been used for years beyond where writers had their own choices to pick which emotion they wanted to go by throughout their work. Some features of romanticism in poetry was:

• Emotion over reason
• sensory experience before intellect
• Imagination to the road of experience and spiritual truth
• The human personality

These features all use a different type of romanticism in order to express a type of story the writer is trying to express. Romanticism to me really interested me due to it is based off of true emotion. I enjoy using different types of emotions when writing in order to bring my own readers into a different world where they can picture it in their minds.
