Romantic Era

The Romantic Era starts from 1760, and it ends by 1850s (Murray, p.20). However, it has left a significant impact on the literature and as well as on society. The effects of Romantic-era can also be seen in the current literature. The Romanticism period brought a new way of looking at the world. It focused individualism by appealing to the emotional reactions. All the themes, literary styles, and genres of this era were new. It diverted the attention of people from the harsh realities of the world and took them to an ideal world. As a result, people also changed their way of thinking and directed toward enlightenment.

Three of the very famous poets of this era; Shelley, Byron, and Keats gave a new direction to the world. They were talking about freedom and peace instead of discussing the wars and destruction. As Shelly was more interested in political matters of the country, it is seen that he mainly addressed power. At the same time, he did not ignore the injustices of society due to the misuse of power. He was a poet and activist at the same time who spoke about the injustices and inequalities of the society (Shelley and Rogers, p.10).

On the other side, Keats was comparing the real world with an ideal and imaginary world. His poems reflect that he was disappointed by the real world such as “The Eve of St. Agnes” has marked it. He also talked about politics in his poems and criticized the society regarding the monarch practices (Dickstein, pg. 175-181). Moreover, he also contributed by give a dimension to the society by portraying the weaknesses of society.

Unlike Keats, Byron talked about the reality, and he did not imagine anything. He discussed the reality as it is regardless of being a romantic poet. Many of his poems depict his personal life. However, he also raised his voice against oppression in the western world. At the same time, he highlighted the importance of human freedom in society. He challenged the culture practices persecution but showed love for classical culture.
