Romanticism, realism, naturalism, Parnassianism, and symbolism were the concepts, movements, and schools that dominated the 19th century.
It was the preeminent democratic genre, documenting detail and fact rather than the universal and general principles that the 18th-century philosophes pursued.

Punjabi literature in its essence is secular, pro-people and anti-establishment.
The role of Punjabi writers and intellectuals was now twofold: to make available classical literature and to make efforts to increase the readership as well as to inspire new writers to write modern literature in their own language.
Actually, the bulk of Punjabi literature was produced after the mid-sixties, and the seventies was the most energetic and creative period.

 Thomas Gray Source 2 -- Biography at LiteratureClassics.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
Gray yields to the impulse of the Romantic movement; he has long been an admirer of ballad poetry; before he wrote “The Bard” he had begun to study Scandinavian literature, and the two “Norse Odes,” written in 1761, were in style and metrical form strangely anticipative of Coleridge and Scott.
His genius was receptive rather than creative, and it is to be regretted that he lacked energy to achieve that history of English poetry which he once projected, and for which he possessed far more knowledge and insight than the poet Thomas Warton, to whom he resigned the task.
He had a fine taste in music, painting and architecture; and his correspondence includes a wide survey of such European literature as was accessible to him, with criticisms, sometimes indeed a little limited and insular, yet of a singularly fresh and modern cast.

She was born in March, in the year 1731.

Her mother often observed and watched her, when such things occurred, as she thought most likely to divert her, either by putting it out of her thoughts, or otherwise engaging her inclinations, but never could observe her to fail.
