W. W. Norton & Company: Norton Anthology: Introduction to the Romantic Period

The major Romantic poets cannot be understood, historically, without an awareness of the extent to which their distinctive concepts, plots, forms, and imagery were shaped first by the promise, then by the tragedy, of the French Revolution. This is the theme of the Norton Anthology's introduction to the Romantic movement in English literature. Includes multiple-choice quiz and comprehension questions, as well as audio recordings.
