Romanticism in England
In England the during the first half of XVII century, the word romantic was referred to what was described in unrealistic terms in romances (which speak about love and adventure stories). It was at the end of 1700 that romantic got the meaning of “picturesque”, which was not only referred to what was represented , but also to the feeling it woke.
In England the movement was current to the German one, and anticipated by the Ossianic Poetry by James Macpherson, concerned two Generations. The first one regards the end of 1700 and was composed by William Blake, the poet who saw symbols in the nature; William Wordsworth and Samuel Taylor Coleridge (the precursors of Romanticism) who together wrote the “Lyrical Ballads” published in 1798, whose the preface written by Wordsworth is to consider the English literary Manifesto. The second generation was composed by George Gordon Byron, Percy Bysshe Shelley (Ode to the West Wind) and John Keats (Ode on a Grecian Urn).
In the Lyrical Ballads by Wordsworth and Coleridge are declared two principles:
- The poems must draw inspiration from everyday life, so without considering heroic themes;
- The language must be simple and sincere so that it could express the feelings quickly;
In the manifesto it comes out a particular aspect, that is the choices that poet must do in order to reach his own purposes. Wordsworth was attached to the concept of “Epiphany” intended as deep reflection suddenly stimulated by a daily and repetitive fact: in Wordsworth’s opinion the poetry is in everyday life, in common events, that through the imagination of the poet, they take on another aspect because the poet manage to understand what the other people cannot see, he can see beyond the banality of the things. The simple chosen language derives from the tendency to describe the rural rife (closer to the nature and less conditioned by the progressive life) which allows to express the feelings. The language choice intended also to criticize the authors who used artificial language drawing inspiration from the classic.
Wordsworth besides defines the poet the man who, giving voice to his emotions knows also how to filter them through his high sensibility and the meditation on them. On Wordsworth’s opinion, finally, the poetic inspiration derives from the revival of the past emotions, which dissolve the calm and make feel the same sensation experienced in the past. So the felt emotions give origin to the poetry.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772-1834)
He had a damned life and was author of a difficult Poetics which had success because he sought for scandal.
thanks!

In England during the first half on XVII century, the word 'romantic' was referred to in unrealistic terms as it was seen only in love and adventure stories. It was at the end of 1700 when the word 'romantic' got its picturesque meaning which was not only taken from its representation in these love stories but actually became more about the feeling of romanticism. In England this movement was anticipated by the 'Ossianic' poetry of James Macpherson which concerned two generations. The first, with regards to the end of 1700 was composed by William Blake, the poet who saw symbols in nature. William Wordsworth and Samuel Taylor Coleridge (the precursors of Romanticism) together wrote the “Lyrical Ballads” which were published in 1798. The preface of this poem written by Wordsworth considers the English literary manifesto. The second generation was composed by George Gordon Byron, Percy Bysshe Shelley (Ode to the West Wind) and John Keats (Ode on a Grecian Urn).
In the 'Lyrical Ballads' by Wordsworth and Coleridge are two declared principals:
- The poems must draw inspiration from everyday life, so without considering heroic themes;
- The language must be simple and sincere so that it could express the feelings quickly;
In the manifesto comes a particular aspect, what choices the poet must make in order to reach his own purpose. Wordsworth was attached to the concept of “Epiphany” intended as deep reflection which was suddenly stimulated by the daily repetitive fact that Wordsworth's opinion is to have poetry of everyday life and common events through the imagination of the poet and that they have their own aspect on their own poetry because they know of the concepts and emotions which helped them write it which readers may not understand. The simple language is chosen to suit the poetry of rural life which allows the feelings of the poet to be expressed, it also critisises the author who used artificial language with inspiration from the classic.
Wordsworth gives voice to his emotions and knows how to filter then through his high sensibility and mediation of his words. In wordsworth's opinion the poem must recall the same sensation as the memory and past emotions it is taken from so the emotions give origin to the poetry.
