Characterist of the romanticism

Romanticism was a political and cultural movement that opposed the principles of Enlightenment and classicism, and wanted to seek freedom. Within literature, the genre that was most influenced by romanticism was poetry. Since romanticism was a political and cultural movement, it had a series of characteristics in the literature; such as a focus on the emotions of the writer or narrator and the inner world, as well as the exaltation of nature, beauty and imagination, and rejection of the industrialization, organized religion, rationalism and social convention. Also the idealization of women, children and rural life, the inclusion of supernatural or mythological elements, which became common during later times, in addition to an interest in the past, the frequent use of personification, the experimental use of language and verse forms , like the white verse and the emphasis on everything. It also includes subjectivity, the use of expressiveness and irrationalism, the taste for the exotic is appreciated. And themes that include freedom, love, mystery and everything related to feelings.

Romantic painting rejects neoclassical conventions and their rigid rules; It represents a moment of technical and aesthetic renewal of important consequences for the future: • It uses different techniques: oil, watercolors, engravings and lithographs. • Texture begins to be valued in itself and rough surfaces appear along with more subtle shapes. The brushstroke is free, alive and full of expressiveness. • The line disappears in front of the color. The suggestive power of color is recovered, releasing excessively defined shapes and limits. He is the first order emotional agent • The light is very important and its gradations are taken care of giving an effective and theatrical character. • Compositions tend to be dynamic, marked by curved lines and dramatic gestures. Some authors like Friedrich prefer more rested geometric schemes .

JONH KEATS

The odes are Keats’s most distinctive poetic achievement. They are essentially lyrical meditations on some object or quality that prompts the poet to confront the conflicting impulses of his inner being and to reflect upon his own longings and their relations to the wider world around him. The internal debates in the odes centre on the dichotomy of eternal, transcendent ideals and the transience and change of the physical world.. In the “Ode to a Nightingale” a visionary happiness in communing with the nightingale and is contrasted with the dead weight of human grief and sickness, and the transience of youth and beauty—strongly brought home to Keats in recent months by his brother’s death. The song of the nightingale is seen as a symbol of art that outlasts the individual’s mortal life.The slow movement of the odes suggests an enjoyment of such intensity and depth that it makes the moment eternal.These poems are among the greatest achievements of Romantic poetry. With them should be mentioned the ballad “La Belle Dame sans merci,” of about the same time, which reveals the obverse and destructive side of the idyllic love seen in “The Eve of St. Agnes.” The poems “Isabella,” “Lamia,” “The Eve of St. Agnes,” and Hyperion and the odes were all published in the famous 1820 volume, these poems and books are the best knowed about him. Keats died at the 25 years old because he had a severe tuberculosis.

John Keats (born October 31 of 1795 in London, England. He died February 23, of 1821 in, Rome,Italy)was an English Romantic lyric poet who devoted his life to the perfection of a poetry marked by vivid imagery and an attempt to express a philosophy through classical legend. His father was a livery-stable manager, John Keats received relatively little formal education. His father died in 1804, and his mother remarried immediately. Throughout his life Keats had close emotional ties to his sister and his two brothers. After this married, Jonh passed lo live with her grandmother an go to another school, where her literary aspirations was fomented. In 1814 he went to live in London, where he worked as a dresser, or junior house surgeon, at Guy’s and St. Thomas’ hospitals. From then until his early death, the story of his life is largely the story of the poetry he wrote.His first mature poem is the sonnet “On First Looking into Chapman’s Homer” (1816), which was inspired by his reading of George Chapman’s classic 17th-century translation of the Iliad and the Odyssey.Keats’s first book, Poems, was published in March 1817.

Biography

In the first place, I would like to convey what the poem suggests to me; for me, it reflects a very desperate person due to the melancholitones he uses; through the repetition that something damages your feelings or for some family event, such as the death of his beloved brother. This poem tends to resort to fantastic themes (focusing several times on Greek and Roman mythology) and including several comparisons with loneliness and loving feelings, it also frequently uses personifications such as "flickering bubbles."and great interest in the past, since they usually have many verbs at this moment. In general it is a poem that suggests sadness and love.
