Romanticism in Literature Romanticism was a shift from faith in reason to faith in the senses feelings, and imagination interest in urban society to an interest in the rural and natural public, impersonal poetry to subjective poetry concern with the scientific and mundane to interest in the mysterious and infinite. Mainly romanticists cared about the individual, intuition, and imagination.

Elements Of First and foremost, Romanticism is concerned with the individual more than with society. The four elements of Romanticism are 1. Love of nature 2. Importance of emotion/imagination 3. Rejection of classic art forms 4. Rebellion against society

Gothic Literature Gothic fiction, is literature that combines elements of both horror and romance. Gothicism's origin is attributed to English author Horace Walpole, with his 1764 novel The Castle of Otranto, subtitled "A Gothic Story". The effect of Gothic fiction feeds on a pleasing sort of terror, an extension of Romantic literary pleasures that were relatively new at the time of Walpole's novel. Melodrama and parody were other long-standing features of the Gothic initiated by Walpole.
