“the romantic era” is the first unit in this course that has featured literature in prose form (novels). today, fiction is the most popular form of literature, and romantic poetry especially is said to appeal to a broader audience than the poetry of earlier eras. as a reader, do you feel this is true? how accessible do you find the literature of the romantic era? which texts were more accessible than others? what about these texts made them easier to comprehend and/or enjoy?

as a reader i find this to be true. romantic era stories/novels are easy to come by. everyone has heard of edgar allan poe, he was a romanticism author, no was nathaniel hawthorne. 

hope that's what you were looking for.

explanation:

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
