Abstract
It is a truism that literary form changes with the changing ideas and emotions of different literary eras. Neo-classic regularity commences the age of rationalism and Intellectual enlightenment. A certain formalism limits the freedom of literary speech and characterizes our age of mere opinion and chaos. The Neo-claasic and Romantic eras in English literature are from the viewpoint of form diametrically opposite. In other aspects they are not so widely different but in form and expression we find a distinct variance.
