ROMANTICISM

Q: Of all the time periods we've studied (Classical, Medieval, Renaissance/Reformation, Neoclassical/Enlightenment, Romantic, Victorian, Modern, and Post-Modern), which is your favorite? Choose a poem from that time period to explain why.
A: My favorite time period would Romanticism 1790-1830. Romanticism with a capital "R" that talks about a writer in a specific time period. I liked this time period because it spoke of the nature being beautiful and listening to your heart, and making your own choices. I poem that I really liked during this time period is the poem of "The Chimney Sweeper" by William Blake, I really liked this poem because of the way Blake describes the life of England. This poem just has so much detail in it and the way Blake takes about the boys life. ROMANTICISM RULES!!!!

    I enjoyed this poem also because he was talking about the life of a little boy and how hard it was. It is kind of sad that he knows after life he will go to a better place.
