ENG 344 - Romantic Literature

Institution:

Knox College

Subject:

Description:

Emphasis on the Romantics as the first generation of writers to face a universe that did not have a built-in meaning. The old Medieval- Renaissance world view, which was still operative in Pope's Essay on Man, no longer served the needs of the Romantic writers, who looked elsewhere for new sources of meaning: to Nature, to the inner self, to romantic love, and to the transcendence (real or imaginary) of art itself.
