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.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
