Abstract

This research looks at how nature influenced Romanticism, particularly in the writings of William Wordsworth, John Keats, and Percy Bysshe Shelley, and how their depictions of nature still have resonance in contemporary poetry. Romantic poets are well known for their close relationship with nature, which they viewed as a source of aesthetic beauty, spiritual instruction, and transformational force. Whereas Shelley saw nature as a forceful force for change and revolution, Wordsworth saw it as a moral and spiritual guide that offered knowledge and peace. In contrast, Keats praised nature's sensory beauty and its ability to induce transcendence and timeless beauty. This essay illustrates how the poets' interaction with nature influenced their philosophical and emotional topics by examining a few poems, including I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud by Wordsworth, Ode to a Nightingale by Keats, and Ode to the West Wind by Shelley. It also looks at how their Romantic ideas about nature still affect poetry now, especially when it comes to ecological issues and the interaction between humans and nature. This analysis demonstrates Romanticism's ongoing relevance and its significant influence on contemporary literary forms that prioritize self-reflection, personal development, and environmental awareness.                    
Keywords: Romanticism, Romantic Poetry, Nature In The Romantic Poetry, Poetry Studies.
