Students took a 10-question, 30-point quiz over "American Romanticism" (pp. 138-50 in our textbook).

Afterwards we examined the Romantic Period in its relationship to the (Neo-)Classic Period (aka the Enightenment or the Age of Reason), focusing specially on architecture in its Neoclassical and Gothic styles. We looked at images of Neoclassical (e.g. Monticello) and Gothic and Gothic Revival (e.g. Suzzallo Library) buildings.
