1. Emily wingspaninson and Walt Whitman were both influenced by Romantic ideals. Choose one poem from each poet from your American literature book. In paragraph form, describe at least two ways that each poem represents Romantic characteristics . Incorporate specific examples from the poem to support your claims.
That's supposed to say wingspaninson; what the heck.
. The Transcendentalists were criticized and sometimes mocked for being too unrealistic. However, some of their ideals are still with us today and have become part of the American identity. Identify and describe at least two transcendental ideals that you believe are still valued today. Write one paragraph for each ideal. Include specific quotes and examples from both Emerson and Thoreau.
WILL GIVE MEDAL.
post the poem for #1
Okay! let me find one. here we go. its called "I felt a Funeral in my brain"
is the poem complete?
Yeah, that's all it gave me.
In the poem "I felt a funeral in my brain" by (**insert the authors name here**), I found that it represents Romantic Ideals. The first reason why I think so is because when the poem says "And then when they were all seated" meaning, when things were calm and getting passionate, then "A service like a drum" meaning his/her heart, "kept beating-beating- till i thought my mind was going numb", his hear started to get excited and it's palpitations were getting harder and faster because he was getting nervous and it got to the extent where he/she couldn't think right. He/she couldn't think right, therefore it is compared to numbness.
sorry i took so long to reply xD
but you can use that for the first reason why it's romantic, and then you can use it as an example for the second reason to why that poem is romantic. (: if you need anything else let me know. i hope i helped u in some way (:

Transcendentalism is a religious and philosophical movement that was developed during the late 1820s and '30s in the Eastern region of the United States as a protest against the general state of spirituality and, in particular, the state of intellectualism at Harvard University and the doctrine of the Unitarian ...
