Abstract: This article summarizing English Romanticism and its development: English Romanticism emerged as a response to the societal changes brought about by the Industrial Revolution and the Enlightenment. This literary and artistic movement, flourishing in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, emphasized the primacy of emotion, imagination, and individual experience. Romantic poets and writers celebrated the beauty and power of nature, viewing it as a source of inspiration and spiritual renewal amidst the rapid industrialization of society. They rebelled against the constraints of societal norms and traditions, championing personal expression and creative freedom.
