A detailed Summary of change throughout the Romantic period


In general, American literature during the first half of the 19th century is categorized

under the Romantic Movement. The movement began in an "Era of Good Feeling", when

Americans felt proud of their young and rapidly expanding country. The good feelings are

reflected in William Cullen Bryant's poems. The rise of Transcendentalism brought about a

change in attitude and philosophy to a more critical and analytical tone. Finally, toward the

end of the Romantic Movement, writers such as Herman Melville became anti-

transcendentalist. The changes in language and philosophy during the Romantic Movement

are in the writings of Bryant, Emerson, and Hawthorne.
