Answer:

Romanticism

literary genre (early 1800s to end of Civil War) in response to formal/classical/traditional preceding period; after war of 1812, Americans want to establish our own national culture; Puritanism/Calvanism (strict, everything for a purpose) on the decline; desire to part from structure and logic of Enlightenment
