لیریکل بالادز
"لیریکل بالادز" (lyrical ballads) is a genre of poetry that combines narrative storytelling with lyrical expression. This form of poetry often focuses on themes of nature, emotion, and the human experience, making it accessible and relatable to readers. The genre gained prominence in the late 18th century, particularly through the works of poets like William Wordsworth and Samuel Taylor Coleridge.
The first collection of lyrical ballads, published in 1798, is considered a significant milestone in the Romantic movement. It aimed to elevate the language of poetry by using everyday speech and exploring the lives of common people. This approach helped to democratize literature and inspired future generations of poets and writers.
