Romanticism

Romanticism

 

Romanticism was an artistic, literary, and intellectual movement that emerged in the late 18th century and continued into the 19th century. It is characterized by an emphasis on emotion, individualism, and the celebration of nature. Romantics valued the expression of feelings and imagination over reason and logic. In art, Romanticism often featured dramatic landscapes and heroic subjects. In literature, it gave rise to works exploring themes of love, adventure, the supernatural, and the human spirit's capacity for greatness.
