  - - - He produced 5 long poems, 4 shorter poems published independently, and many small metrical pieces.
        His meteoric poetic career peaked with his third long narrative: (1810). The narrative is in iambic tetrameters, the story is predictable but the metrical uniformity is relieved by frequent songs. Moreover, the poem touches on a central theme: the clash between neighbouring societies in different stages of development.
      - He is often credited for inventing and being a practitioner of the historical novel, and he was influenced by Gothic Romance. He wrote 27 novels, the most renamed being
        Pre-1820: "Waverley" and with Scottish locations and 17th/18th settings.
        -1820: and short-stories such as (1824)

        Coleridge could make mysterious events acceptable to the mind of the readers. He explored imagination and the supernatural through enigmatic narratives.

        W. Wordsworth was a poet of nature who had the special ability to make ordinary things seem wonderful as can be seen in his part in "Lyrical Ballad", where he shows the different stages of humans.
        
        He sought to use simple language that was accessible and reflective of everyday speech, breaking away from the style of 18th-century poetry.

    - - PB Shelley struggled vs the causes of human misery and vs accepted religions, as he reflected on his works "The Necessity of Atheism" and "The Mask of Anarchy". He saw goodness in the whole of nature and he wanted everyone to be free. He viewed nature as a source of moral and spiritual truth.
        
        In his work "A Defence of Poetry" he discusses the nature of poetic thought and inspiration, the problems of translation, the value of erotic writing, the connections between poetry and politics and the essentially moral nature of imagination.
        
        Shelley frequently used classical mythology and allegorical elements to convey his themes, as in "Prometheus Unbound"

      - Lord Byron was a romantic figure but his poetry was much influenced by the classical form of Pope
        
        Most of his poems occur in exotic settings. They are full of contradictions, witty wordplay, humour and bitterness.
        
        However, some considered that his poetry lacked the finest poetic imagination, which led Byron to respond with his satirical work, "English Bards and Scotch Reviewers"
        
        In 1818, He wrote a great poem, a realistic epic adventure with an ordinary man as a hero. It's a satire, an attack to his enemies and a contrast between content-form but also between humour and gravity.
        
        "Childe Harold's Pilgrimage" was the narrative poem that brought Byron fame and introduced the "Byronic hero" (an idealized, flawed character, who is a rebellious womaniser, and anti-social).
        
        He was such a controversial figure due to his scandalous behaviour and debts that he left England in 1816 and spent much of his later life in Switzerland and Italy.
        
        died in Greece while supporting the Greek War of Independence against the Ottoman Empire.

      - John Keats was a literary theoretician and a poet whose poetry was rich and sensuous, renowned for its vivid imagery and sensory appeal, often described as lush and evocative.
        
        He was a thinker about the nature of poetry as well as about death and suffering. He loved beauty and rest.
        
        His poetry is based on visions, dreams, exploring the boundaries between reality and imagination.
        
        His early allegorical poems and were based on old ideas: old gods.
        
        He coined the concept of negative capability, which describes the ability to accept uncertainty and the unresolved
