Compare and Contrast the poetry during Age of Enlightenment and Romanticism
Describe the Transcendentalism poetry

A transcendental poem ought to reflect itself and embody its underlying artistic
concept. A poem becomes "poetry of poetry" and a self-aware, critical output when it does
this. According to this viewpoint, artistic self-consciousness and critique are essential
components of creative labor. Modern poetic creativity is characterized by this self-
mirroring of the artistic creation as a reflection on its poetic nature. It also turns into a
fundamental component of the artwork.

Analyze "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud by William Wordsworth"

- Why is it a Romantic poem?

"I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud," one of the most important works of Romantic
poetry, examines the connection between nature and people. In doing so, it stresses two
important ideas. First, it makes the case that civilization is a component of nature rather
than something distinct from it. And secondly, it implies that a strong connection to nature
and the natural world are necessary for human happiness.

- What is its rhythm and rhyme?

The poem is divided into four sections, each with six lines. It follows the A-B-A-B-C-
C quatrain-couplet rhyme pattern. Each line follows the rules of iambic tetrameter. The
rhyme system used in the poem "Daffodils" is a-b-a-b-c-c, and it is effective because it
consistently invokes nature at the end of each verse. The poem's rhythmic pattern allows it
to flow like a well-planned tune. Rhymes are made using alliteration and consonance.

- Why did he write it?

One of his most well-known compositions, it was influenced by an encounter he and

his younger sister Dorothy had with a "long belt" of daffodils in a forest on April 15, 1802.
Written in 1804, it was initially included in Poems, in Two Volumes, in 1807, and then
underwent revision in 1815.

Describe the kid of literature present during these two eras

It is frequently believed that realism is a distinctive characteristic of Victorian

fiction; hence it is significant that the term "realism" as it is used to describe the true
representation of the real world in literature or art dates back to the 1850s. The genre of
realism continued to draw on the benefits of empiricism and romanticism even while it
undoubtedly.
