 Romanticism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In France, Romanticism is associated with the 19th century, particularly in the paintings of Théodore Géricault and Eugène Delacroix, the plays and novels of Victor Hugo (such as Les Misérables and Ninety-Three), and the novels of Stendhal.
However the 20th century general use of the term 'romanticism' amongst music writers and historians did not evolve in the same way as it did amongst literary and visual arts theorists, so that there now often exists a serious disjunction between the concept of romanticism in music and in the other arts.
In a general sense, Romanticism refers to several distinct groups of artists, poets, writers, musicians, political, philosophical and social thinkers and trends of the late 18th and early 19th centuries in Europe.

 Romanticism
Romanticism has very little to do with things popularly thought of as "romantic," although love may occasionally be the subject of Romantic art.
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.
A revolutionary energy was also at the core of Romanticism, which quite consciously set out to transform not only the theory and practice of poetry (and all art), but the very way we perceive the world.

 Romantic Period Music [M.Tevfik DORAK]
Another precedent for Romanticism is found in the musical connections with the literary movement known as Sturm und Drang (dramatic works of Gluck in 1760s and some of Haydn's symphonies from the early 1770s such as Trauersinfonie and the Farewell).
Romanticism in literature appears to precede the first signs of Romantic music (for example Goethe [1749-1832] and Wordsworth [1770-1850]).
It is possible to sense the ground for the predominant Romanticism of the nineteenth century being prepared from the time in 1740s when 'feeling' came to be consciously valued when the galant style and its German counterpart Empfindsamkeit were at its height (especially in the works of CPE Bach).

Thus, from this perspective, Romanticism was powerfully fuelled by the dispossessed as the appropriate response of an would-be intellectual and artistic elite denied recognition and fame in a world made up of Philistines.
One important consequence of the Romantic ethos in art is to drive a wedge between the modern artist and politics.
And one can make the case (and it has been made many times) that this logic of Romanticism eventually makes the work of the artist politically ineffectual, and thus plays into the hands of oppressive forces which need to be directly challenged.

 Romanticism
Rand's conception could be described as "Romanticism: The Unknown Ideal", because what she describes bears little resemblance to much of Romantic art and (to the extent it is true of historical Romanticism) applies mainly to the Romantic novel and a little bit to Romantic drama (not even the short story, really).
Her idea that "Romanticism is a category of art based on the recognition that man possesses the faculty of volition" boils down to claiming that Romantic novels and plays emphasize plot and value-conflicts, which could be said of Sophocles just as much as of Hugo.
As I noted in my essay A Philosophy for Living on Earth (footnote 6), this view comes dangerously close to denying that naturalism is art at all, because on her theory the essence of art consists in stylization.

 Steinman, "Introduction", Romanticism and Contemporary Poetry and Poetics, Praxis Series, Romantic Circles
Kaufman’s essay looks back to (and forward from) Kantian aesthetics, suggesting that romantic difficulty, even if by default, underwrites—and is continued by—modernist and postmodernist experimentation, while using poetic difficulty to interrogate the concept and uses of other forms of difficulty: social, cultural, and critical.
This leads to the question Kaufman raises (by way of Cocteau): "Poetry is indispensable—if [we] only knew what for." Ultimately, the uses of poetry are addressed, if in quite different ways, in all three essays here.
As reading the three essays here together intimates, there are in this apparently heterogeneous group of poets and poetic practices common questions, questions that come to us through Romantic constructions of and practices in the lyric.

 Romanticism On the Net 8 (November 1997)
A final question remains concerning the perennially vexed relation of British Romanticism to other Romantic categories, such as European Romanticism, American Romanticism, or Romanticism in nineteenth-century art or music.
Somewhat ironically, many who consider themselves "Romanticists" exhibit, in their research and teaching, a broad set of literary interests: in the domestic novel, the Gothic, the feminist enlightenment, Anglo-African writing, and early British children's literature, in addition to lyric, dramatic, and epic-length poetry by women as well as men.
This fuzziness or blurring at the boundaries means as well that we don't need to engage in turf wars with our colleagues in eighteenth-century or Victorian studies over writers who can inhabit the edges of two neighboring categories simultaneously without disrupting what is ultimately an open category.

s an intellectual and aesthetic phenomenon, Romanticism dominated cultural thought from the last decade of the 18th century well into the first decades of the 20th century.
In poetry, visual art, and music, artists became increasingly preoccupied with articulating the personal experience that becomes, in turn, a representative one.
From its earliest manifestations in Germany with the "Sturm und Drang" Movement of the 1770's to its vibrant first flowering in England in the 1790's to its importation to American soil from the 1820's onward, Romanticism has exerted a powerful hold on Western thought and culture.
