Did you Google? Did you go to your library? Where have you looked?

Here are two sites about the two periods and art, so you will have to mentally bridge to literature --
Neoclassicism & Romanticism (http://classes.berklee.edu/llanday/spring02/tech/r&c.htm)
Neoclassicism vs. Romanticism (Answer Key) (http://daphne.palomar.edu/mhudelson/StudyGuides/NeoCvsRomant_WA.html)
Check Wikipedia under each period for more complete definitions, names of authors and their works.

First, figure out the differences, then think about what similarities there are, if any.

I went to the library but I have only found that the two movements were completely different... I cannot invent the similarities

1. How long does the essay have to be?
2. Do you have to stick to generalities, or can you use up the essay talking about one work of lit?

You disappeared. I hope you return soon. When is the essay due? How much time is left?
I do have ideas for you, but answer my questions along the way, please.
