INTRODUCTION TO ROMANCE
THE TWO GENERATIONS OF ROMANTIC POETRY
WILLIAM BLAKE
Introduction to romance
The introduction to English Romanticism is a fascinating journey into the cultural and literary movement that dominated England in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Characterized by a deep sense of individualism, emotional expression, and an obsession with nature and the supernatural, English Romanticism produced iconic works of poetry, prose, and drama. The works of poets such as William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor, William Blake and John Keats, along with the novels of authors such a Jane Austen and Sir Walter Scott, reflect the tensions and aspirations of a time of social and political trasformation.
William Blake
William Blake was an English poet, painter and printmaker, born in 1757 and died in 1827. Considered one of the greatest poets of English literature, Blake is known for his visionary style and boundless creativity. His works range from poetry to drawing and painting, often combining poetic texts with elaborate illustrations. Among his most famous works are ''Songs of Innoncence and of Experience'', a collection of poems, and ''The Marriage of Heaven and Hell'', a deeply philosophical work. Blake greatly influenced English Rpmanticism and continues to be a figure of gerat inspiration to modern artists and poets.
The two generations of Romantic poetry
Romantic poetry can generally be divided into two main generations. The first generation, often referred to as the ''first wave'' of Romantic poets, includes figures such as William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge and Robert Southey. Their works often focused on nature, emotion and the individual's relationship with the natural world. The second generation sometimes called the ''next wave'' or ''later romantics''. This group included poets like Lord Byron and Percy Bysshe. Their poetry continued exploration of emotion and nature but often delved into darker themes such as social injustice and existential questioning.
