Was the Elizabethan era part of Romantic era?
The Elizabethan era was not part of the Romantic era. The Elizabethan era refers to the period of Queen Elizabeth I's reign in England, generally between 1558 and 1603. It's known for its cultural flourishing in areas such as literature, music, and theater, especially with figures like William Shakespeare. This period came during the Renaissance era instead of the Romantic period.
The Romantic era was an artistic and intellectual movement that primarily spanned the late 18th and early 19th centuries in Europe. The movement emphasized emotions, individual expression, imagination, and a reverence for nature, and found expressions in literature, poetry, art, and music. Notable Romantic poets include William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, and John Keats.
