Paper, Order, or Assignment Requirements

 
1) Write a paper comparing and contrasting the Enlightenment to the Romantic Era using specific examples from the texts we have read for support. Be sure to explain the traits and values from each time period and then use your chosen texts to support your argument. 2) Write a paper explaining the significance of memory and dreams in Romantic Era writing. I’d think most specifically about Wordsworth, Coleridge, and Shelley. How does their very notion of poetry reflect ideas of the unconscious? 3) Write a paper examining the notion of paradox in Romantic era writing. Use specific texts (both poetry and non-fiction prose) to support your ideas.
