  Britain become a large trading empire  The cities grew fast  London remained the largest one  In the 19th century Britain was at its height and self confidence  It was called the,,work shop” of the world  The rich feared the poor both in the countryside and in the fast-growing towns.  The great emphasis was made on the individual based on interdependence of Man and Nature.

 During the second half of the 18th century economic and social changes took place in England. New industries sprang up and new processes were applied to the manufacture of traditional products. The factories were built. There was an increase in the export of finished cloth. Coal and iron industries developed. Much money was invested in road-and canal-building.   Romanticism was the greatest literary movement in the period between It meant the shift of sensibility in art and literature and was based on interdependence of Man and Nature. It was a style in European art, literature and music that emphasized the importance of feeling, emotion and imagination rather than reason or thought. Romanticism in literature was the reaction of the society not only to the French Revolution of 1789, but also to the Enlightenment connected with it. In England the Romantic authors were individuals with many contrary views.   But all of them were against injustice and inequality of the society, against suffering and human selfishness. 

 The Romantic writers of England did not call themselves romanticism (like their French and German contemporaries), they all depicted the interdependence of Man and Nature. The Romantic Writers based their theories on the intuition and the wisdom of the heart. They were violently stirred by the suffering of which they were the daily witnesses. They hoped to find a way of changing the social order by their writing, They belived in literature being a sort of Mission to be carried out in order to reach the wisdom of the Universe.

 William Blake ( ),was bitterly disappointed by the downfall of the French Revolution.  ·Samuel Coleridge( ) and William Wordsworth ( ), both were warm admirers of the French Revolution, Both escaped from the evils of big cities and settled in the quietness of country life, in the purity of nature, among unsophisticated country- folk. Living in the Lake country of Northern England, they were known as the Lakists.  George Byron ( ) and Percy Shelley ( )and John Keats ( ) were young rebels and reflected the interests of the common people. That is why the Romantic Revival of the 18th- 19th centuries can be divided into three periods: the Early Romantics, the Lakists and the Later Romantics.
