The Romantics

Romanticism was an artistic, literary, and intellectual movement appeared in Europe towards the end of the 18th century. The  proposals and conclusions offered by writers during this extrordinary period for English literatüre were, then, symptomatic of a growing dissatisfaction with contemporary literary and social mores, and their influence has remained with us to this very day. The most significant changes took place in the field of poetry, and, whilst poets of the time have been convenintely grouped  togetheras membersof a Romantic movement. The Rime of the Ancient Mariner is the longest poem written by Coleridge. It is known as the one of the best poem of the Romanticism. The poet tells us the story of an sailor who was cursed because of killing an albatross. It can be seen the supernatural and imaginary elements in this poem. Actually I consider the new science-fiction novels and movies as the successors of the works from the Romanticism period.
