Best Answer

Pre-romantic poets, such as William Blake and Edward Young, set the stage for romanticism by exploring themes of individualism, emotion, and nature. They challenged traditional forms and poetic conventions, paving the way for the expression of personal feelings and the exploration of the sublime in nature that became central to romanticism. Their focus on the imagination and the internal world of the self influenced the romantic poets who followed.

Pre romantic poets instead of dealing strictly with conflict for the first time employed whimsy for a light approach dabbling with emotion as opposed to the intensity of earlier periods. With this ground laid, humor and emotion found their way into poetry in the romantic period.
