| | Romanticism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The poet and painter William Blake is the most extreme example of the Romantic sensibility in Britain, epitomised by his claim 'I must create a system or be enslaved by another man's'. | | | Under the influence of Romantic nationalism, composers were among the most vocal proponents of national unity and progress in society. | | | This was rooted in the Romantic argument that each "nation" had a unique individual quality that would be expressed in laws, customs, language, logic and, from their point of view of course, decorative and fine art. |

| | The German Romantic Movement |
| | Romantic poets, painters, and musicians ceased struggling to make the expression fit conventional forms and boldly carved out new forms to encase their expression and thought. | | | Throughout all of Romantic literature, music, and art, Nature is a dynamic presence, a character who speaks in a language of symbols at once mysterious and anthropomorphic. | | | Since the Romantic Movement, the relation of the individual to society has been one of the central themes of modern literature. |

| | Romanticism |
| | French Romantic painting is full of themes relating to the tumultuous political events of the period and later Romantic music often draws its inspiration from national folk musics. | | | Whereas the Romantic lyric poetry of Coleridge, Shelley, Keats and Wordsworth had a negligible influence outside of their native tongue, the sweep of Byron's longer poems translated well into other languages and other artistic media. | | | Much of the drama of the European 19th century is influenced by him, painters illustrated scenes from his plays, and composers based orchestral tone poems and operas on his narratives. |

| | Romanticism |
| | However, as an international movement affecting all the arts, Romanticism begins at least in the 1770's and continues into the second half of the nineteenth century, later for American literature than for European, and later in some of the arts, like music and painting, than in literature. | | | In Romantic theory, art was valuable not so much as a mirror of the external world, but as a source of illumination of the world within. | | | Finally, it should be noted that the revolutionary energy underlying the Romantic Movement affected not just literature, but all of the arts--from music (consider the rise of Romantic opera) to painting, from sculpture to architecture. |

| | Introduction to the Romantic Period |
| | Romanticism was a "reactive" movement; in other words, it sprang from artists reacting against the art, music, and literature they saw being produced in their time. | | | In this class, calling a work "Romantic" simply means that it fits somehow into the "Romantic Movement", an artistic, literary, and philosophical trend in the early 19th Century. | | | We use this year as a starting point for the Romantic Period in English literature because it was the year in which a collection of poems was published that would serve as a major turning point. |

| | History of THE ROMANTIC MOVEMENT |
| | Meanwhile romantics in Britain are seeking out the mysterious romance of long-forgotten literature (in Macpherson's Celtic researches) and the awesome appeal of hitherto unappreciated landscapes (in the quest for the picturesque). | | | This developing mood of romantic medievalism (less frivolous than Horace Walpole's self-indulgence at Strawberry Hill) is given another boost in 1765 with the publication of Thomas Percy's Reliques of Ancient English Poetry. | | | By the mid-19th century the poems, the paintings and the revolutions most commonly associated with the Romantic movement have occurred. |

| | Another school of German Romantic painting was formed by the Nazarenes, a group of artists who attempted to recover the style and spirit of medieval religious art; its leading figure was Johann Friedrich Overbeck. | | | Its greatest exponent, and the greatest German Romantic painter, was Caspar David Friedrich, whose meditative landscapes, painted in a lucid and meticulous style, hover between a subtle mystical feeling and a sense of melancholy, solitude, and estrangement. | | | In England, as in Germany, landscapes suffused with Romantic feeling became the chief expression of Romantic painting but the English artists were more innovative in style and technique. |
