Visions of psychological‚ emotional‚ spiritual paralysis and despair run rampant throughout dark romantic literature. Dark Romanticism can be seen as the antithesis of the Romantic ideals that reached their ultimate form in Transcendentalism. Edgar Allen Poe and Nathaniel Hawthorne‚ two dark Romantics‚ were concerned with the human condition and human nature in a way that few other writers of the time period were.
