Romantic music is related to Romantic movements in literature, art, and philosophy, though the conventional periods used in musicology are now very different from their counterparts in the other arts, which define "romantic" as running from the 1780s to the 1840s.
The era of Romantic music is defined as the period of European classical music that runs roughly from the early 1800s to the first decade of the 20th century, as well as music written according to the norms and styles of that period.
The late Romantic period saw the rise of national "styles" which were associated with the folk music and poetry of particular countries, and with the important composers from that country.

When your notes say that he "is principally remembered for his imposing symphonic works" they refer to a mass audience; but those who have cultivated a taste for chamber music love him equally for his many works for small ensemble and solo piano, as well as for his lieder.
Brahms, though writing in a Romantic mode, was an essentially conservative composer, deriving his inspiration from such great Classical predecessors as Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven.
For our purposes, it is important to note that lieder represent one of the many ways in which Romantic composers tried to blend the arts together, making a new creation out of poetry and music.

Among the well known poets of the Romantic period, John Keats (1795-1821) and Percy Shelley (1792-1822) wrote the sonnets most commonly anthologized--"Bright Star" and "Ozymandius", respectively.

Wordsworth continued the work of Milton in freeing the sonnet's subject matter from the conventional and treated the sonnet as a subjective "verse essay" in which to explore his emotions (White & Rosen).
