Which group of poets reacted against the genre of realism?

symbolists.

Explanation:

Following Baudelaire´s decadent movement, many were influenced by his writing, but perhaps it was Mallarmé who felt this influence the most and who took it further and managed to create a coherent literary movement called symbolism, which grouped together several memorable poets like Verlaine, Rimbaud, Valery, amongst many others. Symbolists reacted against the sobriety of realism and their pretension to capture the essence of reality through detailed and profound descriptions, instead focusing on limit experiences to explore the real nature of the mind in its correlation with reality.    

i would say that these are the two thesis statements best for a literary analysis essay on recurring themes in shakespeare's romeo and juliet:

1.  in romeo and juliet, shakespeare demonstrates that love comes in a variety of forms, be it romantic, familial, or between friends.

2.  shakespeare explores the struggle for identity through the character of juliet in his play romeo and juliet.

the other theses aren't reoccurring in this play.

is this multiple choice?
