    LITERATURE OF

    THE EARLY 19th


    CENTURY
    ROMANTICISM

    Semenova Katya
    Group: Fil/b-17.2
    Romanticism (also known as the Romantic era) was an
    artistic, literary, musical and intellectual movement that
    originated in Europe towards the end of the 18th century,
    and in most areas was at its peak in the approximate
    period from 1800 to 1850.

    Romanticism was characterized by its emphasis on


    emotion and individualism as well as glorification of all
    the past and nature, preferring the medieval rather than
    the classical.

    It was partly a reaction to the Industrial Revolution, the


    aristocratic social and political norms of the Age of
    Enlightenment, and the scientific rationalization of nature
    —all components of modernity.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788-
    1824)
    He is the greatest romantic
    revolutionary poet of
    England.
    Byron’s creative work is
    usually divided into four
    periods:
    The London Period (1812-
    1816)
    The Swiss Period (May-
    October 1816)
    The Italian Period (1816-1823)
    The Greek Period (1823-1824)
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822)

    “Queen Mab”
    “Adonais”
    “Prometheus Unbound”
    “The Cloud”
    “To a Skylark”
    “The Indian Serenade”
    “To the West Wind” and
    other lyrics.
    Walter Scott (1771-1832)

    “The Mystrelsy of the


    Scottish Border” –
    legends and popular
    ballads of Scotland.
    “The Lay of the Last
    Minstrel”
    “Marmion”
    “The Lady of the Lake”
    Jane Austen (1775-1817)

    “Emma”
    “Pride and Prejudice”
    “Sense and Sensibility”
    “Persuasion”
    “Mansfield Park”
    “Northanger Abbey”
    Romanticism was embodied most strongly in the
    visual arts, music, and literature, but had a major
    impact on historiography, education, chess, social
    sciences, and the natural sciences.

    It had a significant and complex effect on politics,


    with romantic thinkers
    influencing liberalism, radicalism, conservatism,
    and nationalism.

    Romanticism revived medievalism and elements


    of art and narrative perceived as authentically
    medieval in an attempt to escape population
    growth, early urban sprawl, and industrialism.
