问题 How is Romanticism different from Neoclassicism? Provide brief evidence from the literary works you know best.

选项

答案A. Neoclassicists upheld that artistic ideals should be order, logic, restrained emotion and accuracy , and that literature should be judged in terms of its service to humanity, and thus, literary expressions should be of proportion, unity, harmony and grace. Pope’ s An Essay on criticism advocates grave, wit, and simplicity in language; Fielding’ s Tom Jones helped establish the form of novel; Gray’ s Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard displays elegance in style, unified structure, serious lone and moral instruction. B. Romanticists tended to see the individual as the very center of all experience, including art, and thus, literary work should be " spontaneous overflow of strong feelings, " and no matter how fragmentary those experiences were, the value of the work lied in the accuracy of presenting those unique feelings and particular attitudes. C. In a word, Neoclassicism emphasizes rationality and form but Romanticism attached great importance to the individual’s mind.
