When people think of “Romanticism” they usually imagine candlelight dinners or dating and going on strolls down a beach. However, that’s not what the term means at all! In fact, Romanticism, also called the Romantic Movement, was a movement in both art and literature that took place between the late 18th and early 19th centuries. It placed emphasis on and celebrated nature, emotion, freedom, and imagination as opposed to civilization or “realism.” It applied to not only books, poems and paintings but also to music.
