Romanticism in the 18th century emphasis on reason and artifice. It embraces imagination and nature. This signifies the difference between the real and unreal. The poets of this era rejected the public formal and witty works for the pervious century. The poets during this period preferred poetry that spoke of personal experiences, emotions, and language that was plain and simple. The poets during this time focus on nature, spirituality, and symbols. William Wordworth, Samuel Coleridge, and William Blake all shared similarity in there poetry. Some of Blake’s that inspired him was his devotion to God and that he believed that every object on earth and event had a mystical or spiritual meaning. Wordworth liked to keep it simple and liked to add everyday experiences into his poetry.
