Romanticism, emerging as a reaction to the Enlightenment and Industrial Revolution, placed a premium on the subjectivity of experience, the expression of intense emotion, the celebration of nature, and the idealization of the individual. Figures such as William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and John Keats rejected the strict formalism of the neoclassical tradition and sought to explore the inner life of the poet, making their works more personal and introspective. This shift in the poetic form and focus would have lasting effects, influencing not only subsequent generations of poets in the 19th century but also laying a foundation for many of the themes and concerns that would surface in modern poetry.
