Show transcript
The Romantic period prioritises imagination and self expression over regulation and institutional power. Many Romantic poets loved and worshipped the natural world. Many Romantic-era writers rejected traditional religious beliefs. The 'sublime', a feeling of overwhelming awe, is often used in Romantic poetry. There are four Romantic poets in the Edexcel ‘Conflict’ Anthology: Wordsworth, Byron, Blake and Tennyson.
