Description

The Romantic poets, active primarily in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, celebrated individualism, nature, emotion, and imagination in their works. They reacted against the rationalism and industrialization of the Enlightenment, embracing the sublime and the mysterious aspects of life. Key figures like William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Lord Byron, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and John Keats often focused on themes of personal freedom, the beauty of nature, and the power of the human spirit. Their poetry sought to explore deep emotions and the connection between humanity and the natural world.
