Freneau and Wheatly
Philip Freneau was brought forth in wise York of Huguenot ancestry in 1752, and died near Freehold, New Jersey, in 1832. Freneau became the unrivaled poet of the Revolution and regarded as the vex of American Literature. Romantic is defined as marked by the imaginative or emotional appeal of what is heroic, adventurous, remote, mysterious, or idealized. In my opinion, Freneaus poems make him a romantic writer because of the following reasons First, his poems demonstrate the delight of nature. In here the emotions and instinct came to be more important than reason.There was an idolization of The Natural Man, the noble savage, and the primitive and untutored individuality. The thought that the undecomposable and unsophisticated vitality was best, also grew popular implies primitivism. These perceptions led to curiosity in old civilizations, glorification of Greek society and a search in archeology nurtured as a science. Another thing was that his poems show heroism. The all over coming of our innate fears and limitations to achieve great things is heroism. The way he wrote those predicaments, he was not hunted to tell whats inside his heart and the actions he would do to be able to help those who are in need.He is romantic because his poems represent the sleep with of the common man. He gave ideas about the social and economic classes as they were denigrated or put down. An era of revolutions opened when the governments were overthrown, due to the fact that it often seemed to trammel elimination of social classes. He also imparted a way to repay a cultural need for wisdom, or a mythology suitable to a new nation. He also shared that life was like a flower. It bloomed and died because of its short life. In my opinion, he wanted us to enjoy life and made it worth living because life is too short to be wasted for nothing.Freneau explained about the strange and far-away places. This feature relates to the love of exotic locations round the world and in ti me and space. This could comprise the past or the upcoming as well as strange places or situations in the present. He also emphasized the love and respect to the dead people that they must(prenominal) be treated right despite of their condition. Finally, as a whole, Freneaus poem make him a romantic writer because he evince deeply the exact meaning of love in all his poem. Phillis Wheatley was innate(p) around 1753 in Gambia, Africa and died on December 5, 1784 while still assay with poverty.The salvation of Christianity evident in her three poems namely To the University of Cambridge in New England, On be brought from Africa to America, and On the Death of the Rev. Mr. George Whitefield 1770. Salvation is the deliverance from the source and effects of sin and the realization of the supremacy of infinite Mind over all bringing with it the destruction of the illusion of sin, sickness, and death. The message of the poem empower To the University of Cambridge in New England want ed to interest us on how deliverer had redeemed us for our sins and gave us another chance to enjoy the allow of being with him.We cannot measure the goodness and passion of the Lord for us because scour though we are sinners, he decided to reach us by allowing his only begotten son, Jesus to die and redeemed us and be with him someday. We should be thankful about it. While in the poem, On being brought from Africa to America it implies that there is no discrimination in the sight of god when it comes to salvation. The race or the color of the eyes is not matter in front of God. Even though, we belong to the clan of the sinners, we can be purified by the love of God if we are also willing in parry and become a member of His kingdom.On the third poem, it dwells on the good motives of our God. I believe that no parents, who love their children, desire evil things for their siblings but of variant the favorable and best things. Just like our Lord and Savior, he is inviting us to a ccept Him, whoever you are, whatever your condition is and what race you belong, he never chose whom He will love and save. In the sight of God everybody is fair because He is a just God, no favoritism and is loved without hesitatio
