We did a small unit on The Romantics in my GATS class my sophomore year of high school and I saved all of the materials, thinking I'm going to come back to this and do a lot more reading. Unfortunately, I haven't gotten to it quite yet. This is why, when I spotted this challenge hosted by Adam at The Roof Beam Reader, I was really excited. I love the way it's set up, as well: two weeks for each writer. I can't wait to get started! If you're interested, follow the link and grab the button. (Or just grab the button to promote.) Here are the details, from his blog:
