INTRODUCTION
As literature travelled through the different movements, the effect of these
movements started to be more witnessed in the literary works. One of the biggest
influences was when authors shifted from all what was reasoning and real to the
imagination, feelings and escaping to nature. These changes in literature did not
stop only in themes or style of writing, but rather affected also the length of the
literary works by making them smaller and more concise which helped introducing
a new genre of literature known as the short story.
The Romantic era is a movement that spread as a soft wind through all
different cultures and societies, French, Spanish, British and American, leaving
behind a great influence on different fields such as Music, Art and, especially
literature. This latter is full of different novels and literary writings.
Through the study of Romanticism as a movement in literature, and by
focusing on this era from the American scope, the huge influence of the
characteristics of this period over poets and authors is witnessed. The way writers
present their literary works creates a special relationship between the readers and
the books; the wonderful choice of words together with the smart usage of setting
and the detailed description of characters all help establish a specific imaginary
world known as the story or plot.
The focus will be on what romanticism is, especially in
America, in addition to the darkness in society presented through literary genre
known as Gothic Literature in both novels and short stories; and shedding light on
the history of the short story by analyzing how this new genre turned from being a
way of telling fairytales to be an established genre of literature.
