Poe was considered a horror author, but his writing also contained elements of Roman which was a literary movement prevalent in the US and Europe in the first half of the 1800s.
Consider some traits of Romanticism in literature:
-focus on emotion and individual response
-focus on religion and superstition; a de-emphasis on science and rational thinking
-possible presence of the supernatural
-characters are typically isolated in some way, either emotionally or physically
-the idea that the way we perceive things is the most important element of life
Using these traits, explain two ways in which the characters/plot events/conflicts represent
the traits of this literary movement.
