The Romantic Revolution

A Philosophical Enquiry into the Origin of Our Ideas of the Sublime and Beautiful (1757) Pre-romantic sensibility was characterised by: a predilection for night, darkness and death; the cult of ruins; terror and fantasies; an interest in mediaeval and northern literature and folklore. The majority of these trends and interests were known as Gothic. In the Second Half of the 18th century…

The French Revolution and the impact it had on British culture and society. The revolutionary spirit took on various forms: a political and social revolution; a revolt against all forms of authority conflicting with human dignity; the free expression of personal feelings. The Romantic Revolution

Romanticism was a truly European movement: Germany: Goethe, Schiller, Herder (Sturm und Drang); France: Madame de Staël, Hugo; Italy: Berchet, Manzoni, Foscolo. European Romanticism

Feeling vs Rationality  instinct, feeling, intuition. Feelings and emotions were essential steps towards true knowledge. Imagination  the central point of the process of creation. It connected the mind of the individual with the physical world. Romantic Themes and Conventions

A love of nature  works contained many descriptions of nature. Romantic writers endowed natural scenes with life, passion and feeling. Commonplace and supernatural  ordinary life, dreams, nightmare and visions were cultivated by the Romantics. The universe was a living entity, which could reveal itself to man on two levels: the visible (nature) and the invisible (the supernatural). Romantic Themes and Conventions

Individualism  introspection, individualism. The Romantics’ individualism was also reflected in isolation from society. The ‘dark’ Romantic hero  a glorious failure, haunted by remorse for his faults and wasted opportunities. The Romantics show a marked interest in the strange, the uncommon and the forbidden. Romantic Themes and Conventions

Search for the infinite  it made the poet a prophet-like creature. It was destined to fail, but this gloriously impossible task was the artist’s noble mission. Romantic Themes and Conventions
