Discuss at least two characteristics of Romanticism in John Keat's poem "Ode toa Nightingale".

The poet in Ode To A Nightingale  is an escapist .He
escapes through imagination .On his way the bower of the bliss wher the nightingale is
singing in full-throated -ease , , and returning from the same , he employs Medieval
ism and Hellenism .The references of Ruth , emperors and clowns  and magic casement
opening in the foam , speak of Keats' love for the middle ages . Again Keats had
fascination to Greek arts and culture .The installations like , Flora and country green
festivals , Bacchus and his parade , light winged Dray ad of trees , etc vivify the
poet's love for the ancient Greek -life .


Medieval ism and
Hellenism are the two major branches of Romanticism .

Calculate tan(x-y), if sin x=1/2 and sin y=1/3. 0

We'll write the formula of the tangent of difference of 2 angles. tan (x-y) = (tan x - tan y)/(1 + tan x*tan y) ...
