This website helped me gain a further understanding of the Romantic era. I particularly liked the section discussing the influence of European romanticism on American writers. Romantic writers rejected rationalism and religious intellect. American romantics embraced the individual. Novels, short stories and poems took place of sermons and manifestos.

This was a useful website in gaining a deeper understanding of the Romantic era. This website defined the term, explained its origin, described the literature and the authors to emerge, the visual arts and the artists, and the music and musicians to arise. This is a credible website because it is a well known and credited encyclopedia company.

This source improved my knowledge of the period because i previously did not realize that the romantic period had anything to do with religion. This source is credible because it clearly states the author whom is published in many academic journals.

This is a good source because it has a lot of text devoted to discussing specific authors of the period and why they were important. I found it very informative and it would be helpful in writing a paper about many different authors.

This resource is very credible and very well doucmented the style and format is amazing and the way that it includes all types of information about the different areas of the romantic period really help me develop my understanding of this period. I think that this period really does need to be documented like this to get the full picture of what common beliefs and interestes were of the day. Very credible and helping my understanding of the romantic period.

This resource is not the best I have ever seen. IT does provide some useful information and seems credible however, it does not provide ENOUGH information to really be considered a primary source but once again i would say it is useful as an assistant resource. It does help me understand the romantic period better however.

I liked how this website described the characteristics of people during this time, especially their attitudes. Knowing how the people behaved and thought during this time makes it easier to understand why the authors made their characters in their texts as they did. This is a credible website because it comes from a very well known and respected Encyclopedia.

I really liked how this website defined the Romantic period. I also liked the details that it gave about it. Reading about all of the different things that influenced that time period helped me put it into perspective and related it to my texts and authors that I chose for this time period.

This site provides an overview of the era, but not necessarily specifics. It also covers English Romanticism, not American. This may help your research into American Romanticism, as long as you simply want to know which English works inspired the movement in America. The last part contains a summary of Romanticism which applies (loosely) to the American movement. If you back up this article with a second, solid source about American literature, you may build an understanding of Romanticism by comparison/contrast. I, however, think it is too English to be very helpful for this course. As a part of the New York Times, it is a credible site...although I would have preferred to see fewer ads.

This page helped me to build an understanding of Romanticism. The last paragraph of the section, “Visual Art and Literature,” was the most helpful. (It discusses the American Romantic movement.) I didn’t know America accepted Romanticism quicker than most of the other countries. Contributing factors are mentioned, such as the French Revolution. I think the willingness to change also ties in with America’s search for a working, national identity. Basically, Deism didn’t work so now in with the Romanticism. Then there is mention of the “other” side, the counter movement against Romanticism. A half century later, the rebellion against Romanticism ushered in the Realist movement.
I recommend this site. WikiPedia is reliable. Its content is edited frequently by peer review, with citations and links to other credible sites.

This website was immensely helpful. The description on the posting was very informative and led me to use it myself in my own research. I also thought that it was helpful that the information came from an educational source rather then some persons opinion making it more credible.

I liked this resource posting because it gave a general description of what the resource was about. It was very thorough in explaining the Romantic era and what sort of things would qualify a piece of literature as Romantic era writing. I agree with the credibility of this source because it came from the Encyclopaedia Britannica.

I liked this resource posting because it gave a general description of what the resource was about. However I didn't feel like there was all that much about the Romantic era itself; instead it was more focused on the authors. I agree with the credibility of this website because it was published in a literary journal.

While I too often use the encyclopedia I think this resource is a good example of why sometimes the encyclopedia should not be used. It just does not give enough information on all topics. i think for this particular one it gives too much broad information and it is difficult to find the information on American Romanticism.

I first follow the sites that have links. I think that it is important for a resource, and it is quick. This site was a question-answer, easy to navigate site that anyone could understand. This basis helps when questing for a deeper look at things, and when doing research, a foundation is necessary. Expediting this process reduces headaches and frustrations.
