INTRODUCTION

This article goes into great length on the beginnings of the romantic era, how it developed, the poets who contributed to its glory, the biographies of these poets, and the specifics of the romantic poetry that dominated this time period. The close of the eighteenth century marked the beginning of the romantic age, which lasted until the 1930s in the nineteenth. The neoclassical era, which saw the rise in popularity of classical poetry among readers thanks to writers like Alexander Pope, was succeeded by the romantic era. Romantic poetry made intense use of elements like imagination, emotion, and nature. There were many writers who composed romantic poetry during this time, but only the lives and works of the four major poets—William Wordsworth, Samuel Coleridge, John Keats, and P. B. Shelley—are covered in this article. The earliest romantic period influencers were Wordsworth and Coleridge. People will learn even the smallest details about the romantic era from this article. Primary traits include its celebration of nature's magnificent or awe-inspiring forces, its exaltation of personality and emotion, its defiance of convention and reason, and its incorporation of spiritual and supernatural components.

Research materials and methodology

According to academics, the release of William Wordsworth and Samuel Taylor Coleridge's Lyrical Ballads marked the start of the Romantic Era. One of the earliest poetry collections to depart from the Neoclassical Period's more formal poetic style was this one. Instead, poets of the day wrote in terms that the common person could comprehend. This helped convey human emotion as well. Wordsworth wrote mostly on the natural world. He believed it may offer a source of spiritual under-

standing and mental purification. Wordsworth is best known for his poem "The Solitary Reaper." This poem honors the beauty of music and demonstrates Wordsworth's belief that poetry required a full expression of feeling. The Prelude, a semi-autobiographical conversation poem that spans Wordsworth's whole life, is his best work. Wordsworth and Coleridge most frequently wrote in the literary genre of conversational verse. The latter wrote a sequence of eight poems that explored larger concepts of nature and morality while adhering to the conventions of the genre. With a lot of the content based on the author's life, this blank verse poetry is incredibly private and personal. Wordsworth and Coleridge were close friends who frequently inspired one another. Coleridge led a more chaotic life than Wordsworth, who was far more contemplative and serene. Only one of his three great works, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner (1798), is finished. The voyage and experiences of a sailor are described in this poem. Due to a mystical curse, the sailor can only return home when he learns to value the surrounding wildlife and environment. Because of his past transgressions, he is compelled to tour the planet telling his story. Christabel (1816) and Kubla Khan (1816) are his other two extended form poems. Coleridge claims that after reading a work about the Chinese ruler Kublai Khan, he had a dream while high on opium that inspired him to write the poem Kubla Khan. He never managed to complete the task. In Christabel, the main character meets Geraldine, a stranger who approaches her and requests assistance. Christabel finds her and brings her home, ignoring the paranormal indications, but it seems the stranger is not like the others. Coleridge intended for the poem to have five parts, but he was only able to complete two. Romanticism's core themes are the exaltation of nature and the celebration of the individual. To be more precise, Romantics celebrate the individuality of the human spirit, which they believe is mirrored in and inextricably linked to the wild, unbri-dledness of nature. Because of this, the Romantics disapproved of civilization and its emphasis on reason, empiricism, and contemporary advancement. The term "romanticism" in literature describes a literary trend that mostly originated in England and America in the late 18th and early 19th century. With its emphasis on reason and logic, the movement arose as a rejection of the ideals and methods of the Age of Enlightenment. The Industrial Revolution, which the Romantics believed was bad for the human soul and spirit because it kept people in crowded, chaotic cities instead of in the seclusion and spiritual fulfillment of the countryside, also gave rise to Romanticism. Around the close of the 18th century, a literary, artistic, and intellectual movement known as romanticism emerged throughout Europe. Academics believe that the Lyrical Ballads published by William Wordsworth and Samuel Coleridge in 1798 marked the start of the movement in England, and that Queen Victoria's corona-

tion in 1837 marked its conclusion. In other English-speaking countries, romanticism emerged later; in the US, it did so about 1820. Due to the rapid rise of densely populated industrial centers and the depopulation of rural areas, England saw significant social transformation throughout the Romantic era (1798-1832). Two factors contributed to the mass migration of people in England: the Industrial Revolution, which created jobs "in the factories and mills, operated by machines driven by steam-power," and the Agricultural Revolution, which involved enclosures that forced laborers and their families off the land.

RESULTS AND DSICUSSION

Romanticism was in fact a response against the scientific rationality of nature as well as against the aristocratic social and political standards of the Age of Enlightenment. However, it may also be understood as a backlash against the Industrial Revolution. Many Romantic figures of this era also drew significant political inspiration from the French Revolution. Romanticism was characterized by the following attitudes: a greater appreciation of nature's beauty; an overall exaltation of emotion over reason and the senses over intellect; a turning inward and a closer look at the human personality and its moods and mental potentialities; an obsession with the genius, the hero, and the exceptional figure in general, with an emphasis on their inner struggles and passions; a stress on imagination as a doorway to transcendent experience and spiritual truth; a new understanding of the artist as an incredibly unique creator, whose creative spirit is more significant than rigorous obedience to formal norms and established processes; a fixation on folk culture, national origins, and ethnic groups the medieval period; as well as a penchant for the strange, the remote, the enigmatic, the bizarre, the occult, the monstrous, the ill, and even the demonic.

Romanticism is an attitude or intellectual orientation that was prevalent in many Western civilizational works from the late 18th to the mid-19th century in the fields of literature, painting, music, architecture, criticism, and history. Romanticism can be understood as a rejection of the idealization, rationality, harmony, order, and serenity that characterized late 18th-century Neoclassicism in particular as well as classicalicism in general. It was also, in part, a protest to the Enlightenment, against the rationality and broad physical materialism of the eighteenth century. Romanticism, which spanned roughly 1805 to the 1830s, was characterized by a revival of national originalism and a quickening of cultural nationalism.

CONCLUSION

This was demonstrated by the gathering and replication of indigenous folklore,

poetry and ballads, folk dance and music, and even works by medieval and Renaissance artists that had previously been disregarded. Sir Walter Scott, widely regarded as the father of the historical fiction, channeled the resurgence of interest in the past into creative writing. Lord Byron, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and John Keats's poetry had achieved the pinnacle of English Romantic poetry at around the same period.
