One reason why imagists strove for clear precise language was in response tothe decoratively long winded poems of this literary movement

A. Romanticism
B. Modernism
C. Transcendentalism
D. Revolutionary literature

A. Romanticism.

Explanation:

Imagists or the poets and writers of imagism are from the literary movement that favors the realists and more precise and clearer form of writing about things. It is quite contrary to those of the romantics whose main focus was on the decorated and sentimental form of literary writings.

Writers of imagist poems and works strove for clearer and precise writing in response to the decoratively long-winded poems of the romanticism writers who used decorative, sweet, and other emotional words. Romanticism's main focus is in presenting things in such a way that they are in an almost imaginary language, using great and exaggerated words to present things as more than they really are. Imagists rather focus on the realistic nature of things.  

Thus, the correct answer is option A.
