Write 3 page essay on the topic The ambiguous nature of Schlegel's appellation.

&nbsp.Nevertheless, much discord was sown over the generalities stringently argued. One article that reviews the trajectory of romanticism in literary France discusses the various positions and rhetorical strategies that the royalists and liberals utilize in order to advance a political or literary agenda. In our analysis of this article, it will become clear that what represents examples of "romantic" literature has much less to do with romanticism and more to do with what the perceived fears or advantages might be gained from an affiliation or rejection of the genre. The ambiguous nature of Schlegels appellation was incongruously applied to many forms of literature from multiple regions. The initial salvos in the liberal classicist arsenal revolved around arbitrarily selecting literary examples that could be seen as non-classical and possibly indicative of this new style and then revealing its defective sentimentality and melodrama in comparison with the sophistication and refinement of classical literature. Those who would eventually claim the banner of romanticism did not actively seek to define what it was until the vehement royalist attack was levied against the style as well. Romanticism has often been discussed in the context of a reaction to the classical tradition rather than an evolution or shift, and thus this ostensibly formless and perceived to be content-less style was a significant source of fodder for the likes of Viennet, E. Jouy and other defenders of the classics (Lanyi 141-142).
