8.6.7 American Arts The Big Idea New movements in art and literature influenced many Americans in the early 1800s. Main Ideas Transcendentalists and utopian communities withdrew from American society. American Romantic painters and writers made important contributions to art and literature.

Main Idea 1: Transcendentalists and utopian communities withdrew from American society. Transcendentalism was the belief that people could transcend, or rise above, material things. Important transcendentalists included Ralph Waldo Emerson, Margaret Fuller, and Henry David Thoreau. Some formed a community at Brook Farm, Massachusetts, in the 1840s. –It was one of many experiments in utopian communities, places where people tried to form a perfect society. –In reality, most members did not work together well and the communities did not last long.

Main Idea 2: American Romantic painters and writers made important contributions to art and literature. Ideas about simple life and nature inspired painters and writers. –Some joined the Romantic movement that had begun in Europe. Romanticism involved an interest in nature, emphasis on individual expression, and rejection of many established rules. Painters and writers felt that each person brings a unique view to the world. They believed in using emotion to guide their creativity.

Art of the Romantic Movement Some Romantic artists, like Thomas Cole, painted the American landscape. Their works celebrated the beauty and wonder of nature in the United States. Their images contrasted with the huge cities and corruption of nature that many Americans saw as typical of Europe.

T.W.P.S. # 2 How did European artists, and American artists differ?

American Romantic Writers Many women writers, including Ann Sophia Stephens, wrote historical fiction that was popular in the mid-1800s. Nathaniel Hawthorne wrote The Scarlet Letter, one of the great classics of Romantic literature. Herman Melville wrote Moby Dick, a novel about the sea that many people believe is the finest American novel ever written. American Romantic authors also wrote poetry, including Edgar Allen Poe, who became famous for “The Raven.” Other gifted poets included Emily Dickinson, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, and Walt Whitman.
