Contrasts or commonalities? Poet, writer, romantic or realist

Abstract: (5 pp) In spite of the external way that we may appear to others, most of us do want some type of order in our lives. One way to do that, on an intellectual basis, is the method of categories - some would call "pigeon-holing" bits of history together, so they stay somewhat orderly in our minds. The labels, romantic, realist, poet, and writer, are all ways of doing that very thing. What happens if we should run into someone who is all four? The author will examine that puzzle, through the works of Wordsworth, Ibsen and Tagore.
