The Renaissance period was filled with a surge of creative energy and the emergence of a worldview more modern than medieval. A period of time where arts and literature, beauty of nature, human impulses, exploration, and a new sense of mastery over the world.  It was also when theater and art was greatly appreciated. All throughout the Middle Ages, most people focused their energy was on religion and afterlife. However during the Renaissance people became more curious about life on earth. Sonnet 75 fits into beauty of nature because Edmund Spenser captured the beauty of his love and the nature that surrounds her. Convincing her that his words will last an eternity just as beauty on this earth.

Many romantic writers reacted negatively to the effects of industrialization; the widespread of poverty and oppression of workers. They turned to nature for truth and beauty and they emphasized emotion over reason, nature over industrial, and lastly the individual over society. This poem about young orphaned boys who had to work as chimney sweepers in horrid conditions and therefore were deprived of their childhood.
