How to write a pursuasive speech on the romantics era?

Truth be told, I think its impossible. It might be. But I'm going to ask my professor today and hopefully she will tell me the correct path to take. I'm very unsure of myself. i feel stupid because I think I may have chosen a really crappy topic. But I chose it, so I might as well ride this thing to the last dreggs of info. Romantics era. Ugh! I can't believe I selected a topic that is as flat as a pancake. How am I supposed to write a 5 page paper with out the ability to make a stance??? UGH!!!
