The Dark Romanticism

The three authors would not believe in transcendentalism philosophy because, transcendentalism believed that everyone was pure and good. But all the authors had bad things happen to them in their life and they also have made people have bad times in there life. Like look at Nathaniel Hawthorne he was a judge that was sentencing people to death and gets hung and things like that.

I think that I would be a dark romanticism because e the romanticism believed that everybody was good and people may end up doing something bad in there life. But I don’t think that everybody was good and pure and that’s why I say that I am dark romanticism.

The story “The Black Cat” is about this man who had a quick temper and he couldn’t control it. He was married and his wife was in love with animals and they had all kinds of animals. Then sometimes he go out and get drunk and comes home and then he start getting bored so he would end up taking it out on the cats, like cutting the cats eyes out. The narrator had a bad temper, so at the end of the story he ends up killing his wife and the cat.

The Dark Romanticism would disagree with the transcendentalists. The transcendentalists believe that everyone was pure and good and that god spoke through there mind. The Dark Romanticism did not believe that god spoke through people minds and they didn’t believe that everybody was pure and good. In the story they are showing you how the mind can just snap, and how man just killed his wife and the cat.

Let me see, then, what thereat is and this mystery explore-- Let my heart be still a moment and this mystery explore;-- 'Tis the wind and nothing more.. Ever yet was blessed with seeing bird above his chamber door-- Bird or beast upon the sculptured bust above his chamber door. They are listing to there mind and it is showing transcendentalist.

The transcendentalist believes that everyone was good and pure and that god spoke through everybody mind and they did not believe in evil. In the story they called the raven a thing of evil, but the transcendentalist did not believe in evil through. They also believe that you turned to the over soul no matter what.

Edgar Allen Poe was recognized as a literacy critic and James Russell Lowell called him the most discriminating, philosophical, and fearless. After his brother death he began more earnest into and to start his career as a writer. He was found of the street where some man found him and toke him to the hospital and where he later died.

I think what made Edgar Allen Poe write like this is, because when he was a child he had been going through a lot of thinks. Like when he was a child his father had abandoned there family and his mother end up dying the year later. Then he and his sisters had to go to a foster home. So I believed that’s why he always mean and can’t control the things he does.
