Pargraph: What is American Romanticsism?

       American Romanticism refers to a set of principles that belong to a period of cultural history often marked by experimentations, shifting values, and radical new social roles. American Romanticism is a movement of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries that marked the reaction in literature, philosophy, art, religion, and politics from the neoclassicism and formal orthodoxy of the preceding period Romanticism has very little to do with things popularly thought of as "romantic," although love may occasionally be the subject of Romantic art. Rather, it is an international artistic and philosophical movement that redefined the fundamental ways in which people in Western cultures thought about themselves and about their world. Quote: “It is foolish to pretend that one is fully recovered from a disappointed passion. Such wounds always leave a scar.” - Henry Wadsworth

"Neither a borrower nor a lender be;
For loan oft loses both itself and friend,
And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.

And it must follow, as the night the day,
Thou canst not then be false to any man.
Farewell: my blessing season this in thee!"

Quote, Paraphrase, and Citation #1

"Things are said to be named 'equivocally' when, though they have a common name, the definition corresponding with the name differs for each. Thus, a real man and a figure in a picture can both lay claim to the name 'animal'; yet these are equivocally so named, for, though they have a common name, the definition corresponding with the name differs for each. For should any one define in what sense each is an animal, his definition in the one case will be appropriate to that case only."  -Aristotle

Paraphrase - It's saying there are many of the same words but they have very different meanings.
