American Romanticism

Rip van wrinkle has a man that everybody in the city knew for doing things for them. He helps a lot of people in the town by doing odds things for them or just running errands for the people in the town. Then they said that Rip van wrinkle went to sleep for twenty years. But in the real Rip van wrinkle went too slept for about thirty to forty years.

When Rip van wrinkle woke up he came to the town that he grew up in, and everybody was looking at him funny because of the clothes he had on was making him look like a bomb or making him look homeless. No one in the town recognized who he was because he had been gone for twenty years.

What did I find romanticism about the story is how he went to sleep for about twenty years and how the streets has trash and killing everybody.

The poem is talking about Mother Nature, how everybody should be treated the same because when we all die we all are going to turn into dirt. they are using there imagation about mother nature like they saying that when everybody die they are all going to be the same.
Example:
Go outside and talk to Mother Nature
When you die you will turn into dirt

This poem was about things that they can do with ropes, it was this man was sitting at work making ropes and thinking about the things he can do with a rope. It was a lot of good things that he though about what he can do with a rope. Like make a rope so people could swing. Then he started thinking about how people can get killed with the rope that he was making. In this peom he is using his to make work go by faster. He think about all the good things that he can do with a rope and all the bad things you can do with a rope.
Examples:
How they use rope to let people die
The girl walking the rope and the carnival

The picture on the page is romanticism because it is an imitation of how they want things to look but cause the stay in a city that is dirty and really trashy. So that’s why they pick that picture to imitation how it could look.
