Wordsworth and Coleridge (D) were the first generation of Romantic poets.

Romanticism covers a range of developments in art, music, literature, and philosophy spanning from the late 18th century to the early 19th century. Wordsworth and Coleridge wrote against a backdrop of war. However, Wordsworth became increasingly more conservative.
