What does the following passage reveal mainly about the romantics (paragraph 24)? romantics preferred their nature wild and untamed. their landscape gardens, for example, kept a space for wilderness, with winding paths through tangled woods leading to sudden, startling views. instead of the arranged prettiness of an ornamental garden, they preferred the sublime experience of the swiss alps, where the overwhelming scale of nature inspires awe rather than mere appreciation. in his poem “the tables turned,” william wordsworth recommended that we shut our books and lift our eyes to the natural world around us: “enough of science and of art; / close up those barren leaves; / come forth, and bring with you a heart / that watches and receives.” a) they sought to bring order out of the chaos of nature and enjoyed highly cultivated, aristocratic pleasures. b) they believed that raw nature was the best place for humanity to seek both enjoyment and philosophy. c) they were avid gardeners, and most of the leading figures in the movement are remembered for their elaborate private landscaping. d) the swiss alps became holy ground for romantic writers, and nearly all their works make reference to them.
