The Beginnings Of The English Romantic Movement: A Study In Eighteenth Century Literature is a literary analysis and historical study of the emergence of the Romantic Movement in England during the 18th century. Written by William Lyon Phelps and originally published in 1893, the book explores the cultural and intellectual context that gave rise to Romanticism, examining the works of major writers such as William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, and William Blake. Phelps argues that the Romantic Movement was a reaction to the Enlightenment and the Industrial Revolution, which had created a sense of alienation and disconnection from nature and the spiritual realm. He traces the development of Romantic themes and motifs in literature, including the celebration of imagination, emotion, and individualism, as well as the rediscovery of folklore, mythology, and the supernatural. The book also explores the influence of Romanticism on other artistic forms, such as painting and music, and its lasting impact on Western culture. Overall, The Beginnings Of The English Romantic Movement is a comprehensive and insightful study of one of the most important literary movements in English history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
