Answer:
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
The excerpts conflict because they are completely different visions on the issue of racism and civil rights in the South of the United States.
Martin Luther King was an activist of the African Americans' civil rights and other minorities. He became a leader of the civil rights movement that supported the end of racism in states such as Alabama. On the other hand, George Wallas was the governor of the state of Alabama who was a racist and support segregation and discrimination in the state. He prohibited black people to study in white public college institutions of the time like the University of Alabama, in Tuscaloosa.
Since the <em>Romantic </em>literature had set as its goal the "victory" or predominance of Man over Nature, its language tended to be somewhat triumphalistic (some would say hyperbolic) when it was about how human beings were deployed. Romanticism introduced an long-term project at a time when important scientific milestones were achieved, and also when most of modern nations and States were being founded, thus taking a voice which was very proud of national virtues, some of them legendary, part of folklore or popular culture (but belonging to a national heritage rather than coming from a more traditional stem). Neoclassicist literature was a new take on the Greek-Roman Classics, intending to bring them back into the mainstream and most of the times not fulfilling the feat. Based on this, Neoclassicist language could be felt as overblown. In a way, Romanticism was a look into the future (let us think of <em>Frankenstein </em>a very experimental novel for its time) whereas Neoclasicism very much represented a reaction to such future.
