Romantic poetry was part of the Romantic movement of European literature during the 18th-19th centuries. Some have attributed the Romantic era of poetry as a reaction against the Enlightenment and the Industrial Revolution. Romantic poetry displays a return to nature by man, which is strongly seen in the works of Wordsworth. Further, the Romantic poets were frustrated by the limitations placed on knowledge and the human condition by the Elightenment's valorization of reason over emotion. As a result, the Romantics often praised imagination as a means of furthering systems of knowledge they believed were truncated by embracing reason soley.
