Romantic Period Analysis

Dante Gabriel Rossetti once said, “beauty without the beloved is a like a sword through the heart.” Exhausted of the Royal Academy, William Holman Hunt, John Everett Millais and Dante Gabriel Rossetti decided to break away, and drew inspiration off of Shakespeare, the Bible, Ancient Mythology, along with other multiple sources of inspiration. Formed in 1848, the main focuses were on nature and bright colors. The Pre-Raphaelite movement was like the re-birth of the Renaissance Era, which approximately began in 1300. Invented by a group of 3 people, the movement focused on poetry and writing as well as paintings, an accurate view of nature, and depicted physiological and social tension, religion and color.

It uses musical ideas to represent concepts without having to use sung words. Prominent examples of a programmatic works include Richard Strauss’s Alpine Symphony - where it is a musical description of ascending and descending a mountain, Modest Mussorgky’s Pictures at an Exhibition – inspired by the paintings and watercolours of artist, Hartmann who was a close friend of Mussorgsky. The piece in focus would be Hector Berlioz’s Symphonie Fantastique. We will be focusing on his artistic influences from literature that influenced the story of his Symphonie Fantastique.

“The Tide Rises the Tide Falls”, is a poem written by Longfellow, to show nature’s cycle. Whittier’s poem, “Snow-Bound”, depicts the the polar opposites of warmth and cold, and comfort and discomfort. Question 2:Emily Dickinson was an amazing poet. She has tons of poems with a common theme of loneliness. Some of these poems with this theme are, “You left me”, and “I hide myself within my flower”.

In the novel “The Princess Bride”, William Goldman presents an abridgement of what is proposed to be the classic fairy tale by S. Morgenstern but is actually a novel created entirely on his own. The text is of a romantic love story between two protagonists in the country of Florin, a country which existed before Europe yet after the discovery of the Americas and Australia. Over the course of the novel, Goldman writes a story which strays from the normal parameters of a fairytale. Character design conflicts with the stereotypes and the word choice (Evil Stepmother, etc) is not typical. The timeframe set for the novel and the subplots within are rather ridiculous at times, even for a work of fiction.

Overall, Wallace Stevens tries to combine his principle of “new Romanticism” with a nature that transcends human being, somehow he takes a Transcendental turn in his poem, he had an epiphany, the importance of art, without it and without the woman’s song, people would never be able to comprehend the order of nature. We should chase after something that is deeper than the nature itself, we should listen with our soul and mind at some interior level of

The eruption of industrialization in the Northeast in the decades following the end of Reconstruction created massive amounts of wealth for a privileged few. The cost of this unprecedented growth was paid for on the backs of the working-class labor. Men and women were forced to work unthinkable hours, children were forced into jobs at very young ages, and working conditions were nearly and workable which led to many avoidable injuries. All these atrocities were committed to maximize the profits of their employers, whose exorbitant wealth led to the era being referred too ironically as the Gilded Age. Labor leaders such as Samuel Gompers combated the powerful upper class that controlled the profits of production by attempting to organize labor

The musical definition of “fugue” is “a contrapuntal composition in which a short melody or phrase (the subject) is introduced by one part and successively taken up by others and developed by interweaving the parts”(dictionary.com). This definition fits the piece as well. Musicians often play on words in their piece titles and within their songs, and so I believe that is exactly what Powell was doing here with the change in spelling of “fugit”. Artists favor hidden meanings in their works and this was no different. It appears that Powell wanted all three meanings to be heard: “time flies”, the psychiatric impact, and the musical definition.

The words the author used illustrate the speaker’s emotions and character. The texture and sounds in “Storm Warnings” create images and evoke emotions. The writer used alliteration in this line, “What winds are walking overhead”. The poem uses the alliterative sounds of “w” and “s”, which creates a constant motif in the poem.

Literary Theory Paper Drew Schuler-Jones American Literature to 1865 The Raven and it’s Undeniable Atmosphere of Doom Edgar Allan Poe conducts a symphony of crisp, colorful imagery alongside an eerie symbolism with an eloquent melody to generate a sensation of undeniable doom in his poem “The Raven”. Poe creates this ambiance by using rhyming, alliteration, and repetition to heighten the mood of the poem, as well as the strange, frightening raven as a sort of grim-reaper figure. In my opinion, Poe was an architect with his words, building a revolutionary poem such as this, stimulating spine-tingling creepiness into the bodies of readers nearly 300 years later.

For example, Ludwig van Beethoven (1770 - 1827) is often cited as being in the "Romantic" genre, by some of the same sources who claim that the classical period lasted until 1825, e.g. his entire life! Likewise, there is no consistent description of Vienna's Franz Schubert (1797-1828) - sometimes considered "classical" and other times "romantic". This time period is the most critical for the guitar, however, since Mauro Giuliani (1781-1829), Ferdinando Carulli (1770 - 1841), Fernando Sor (1778-1839), etc., lived during this era. Some guitarists speak of Sor's "Classical Period" to describe his early works, compared to his more romantic works of the 1830's. Stylistically, the guitar's early composers are "inbetween" classical and romantic - thus "late classical" or "early romantic" would be suitable descriptions.

There a dozen of us stood, giddy with the feeling of accomplishment that we had passed and elated that we were done. As we received our certificate for completion of the certified nursing assistants course, we looked ahead to ponder what was going to be done with our new knowledge. We would never be together as a class again, but we would all have a special bond that would forever connect us. The course was just a start to what I had in mind for a later career, but I couldn’t imagine where I would be without it.

"Hey boss, how far do you think we'll get today?" , I asked. "We'll keep going until the sun sets", the trail boss said with an annoyed look on his face. This being my first cattle drive, I didn't know what to expect or what it was going to be like. I also didn't get much respect.
