Explain how “The Dungeon” is a reflection of the Romantic Era. Why is the subject of the poem a good topic for the Romantic Era?
Effectus [21]

The Dungeon is a poem which reflects the Romantic Era because, as most of them, it is a political and passionate piece.

This is a good topic for the Romantic Era because the author, with this piece, reflects the truth and shows concern about the well-being of the common man.

<u>For demonstrating the qualities of the Romantic Era I would chose these three lines</u> because Romantic Era is all about emotions and because the author, in these lines, questions himself about <em>"the innocence of the poor brother that offend us"</em> in a very sensitive and emotional way, trying to break seted standards:

Is this the only cure? Merciful God!

Each poor and natural outlet shrivell'd up / By ignorance and parching poverty

And stagnate and corrupt; till changed to poison, / They break out on him, like a loathsome plague-spot
