A. At the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries, romanticism occurred and developed in Europe.

B. American Puritanism清教

Puritanism is the practices and beliefs of the Puritans. The Puritans were originally members of a division of the Protestant Church. As the word itself hints, Puritans wanted to purify their religious beliefs and practices. They are a group of highly religious and serious people. They are Self-disciplined, sobriety, hard work, thrift, piety without any earthly joy and extravagancy.

C. American was striving for争取 political, economic, and cultural independence from Britain, radical彻底的 changes took place: Development of industrialism, great immigration, westward expansion, etc. The buoyant令人鼓舞的 mood of the nation called for a new literary expression, and romanticism answered the call.

D. The European influence.

II. Features of the romantic literature

.1.Expressiveness: Wordsworth华滋华斯: ―all good poetry is the spontaneous overflow洋溢 of powerful feeling‖

The romanticists held that the writers should express their emotions, feelings, impressions. 印象, instinct直觉, intuition直觉, or their beliefs in their works instead of the imitation模仿 of the classical writers.

2. Imagination

3. Worship崇拜 of nature
