The correct answer is D) a post-Revolutionary War literary movement that focused on the beauty and optimism of the period.
The statement that best describes Bright Romanticism is "a post-Revolutionary War literary movement that focused on the beauty and optimism of the period."
Bright Romanticism is the opposite of Dark Romanticism. This literature movement focused on positive aspects of the human being. It put special attention to the beauty of Mother Nature, accepted the influence of human emotions that were expressed in many author's works, and did not use much reason as feelings to express what author's wanted to communicate with their works.
