Romantic Poetry Test

Your Romantic Poetry Test will be next Tuesday (January 19th). You will be presented with three new "texts" (one poem, a short passage, and a painting). You will annotate the poem and analyze these three pieces together. Then you will write a careful essay in which you draw connections between the pieces and explain how they embody some of the important traits of Romanticism.

Things to study:

• Traits & characteristics of Romanticism
• Annotations of Romantic poems

For the poem annotation and analysis be prepared to consider:

• Title
• Meter & rhyme
• Literary devices & what they contribute to meaning
• Punctuation
• Romantic elements
