While skimming through different poems from poets
Wordsworth, Coleridge, Byron, and Percy Shelly I
found it difficult to find a poem that I could
relate both the idealism of romanticism and what I
have read of Frankenstein. While reading the poem
Most Sweet It Is by William Wordsworth I found the
most satisfying for both the criteria. Therefore I
chose to use it in for this response paper.
Wordsworth first publicized the poem, Most Sweet
It Is in 1835 which is just on the tail end of the

FRIEDERICH NIETZSCHE AND HIS PHILOSOPHIES
Friederich Nietzsche was born in 1844 in the

who was the pastor of a Lutheran congregation. His

his father and, soon after, brother. After
enrolling in school, he suffered from intense,
painful headaches and myopia which caused burning
sensations and blurred vision. This may have been

THE PHILOSOPHY OF FRIEDRICH NIETZSCHE Sometimes
philosophy is called timeless, implying that its
lessons are of value to any generation. This may
be hard to see in Nietzsche's work; but, we are
assured that it was appropriate thought for his
time. However, even Nietzsche's critics admit that
his words hold an undeniable truth, as hard as it
is to accept. Perhaps this is why his work is
timeless, and has survived 150 years in print.

book is remarkably discreet, mentioning only two
lovers by name and a third (whom Hawthorne
rejected after watching him eat) wi...
