Romanism gets caught up in definitions and misses the context. Romanism treats the arts as science. Romanism treats form as meaning.

Terrible thing, that Romanism.

Thank God I'm a Catholic, not a Romanist.

Maybe t_c is referring to Romanticism in poetry? But he's got it wrong -- Romanticism like Shelley etc. is the exact opposite of what he's defining. Do you dislike Shelley, t_C?
