This is ideal for anyone wanting a better overview of Romanticism before launching into the topic in school. It summarises what the poetic movement was and defines tricky ideas such as the Romantic epiphany, the sublime and redeeming the Fall. Also lots of images and clear bulleted points to break it down better for students. After playing this, you would have no problem launching into Blake's 'Songs of Innocence and Experience' or Wordsworth's Lucy poems. It is ideal contextual background for the Wordsworth Prelude extract and Blake's 'London' poems in the AQA power and conflict anthology.
