literature,philosophy,art,religion,and politics from neoclassicism of the preceding period.For romantics,the feeling,institutions and emotions were more important than reason and common sense.It started around the year of 1780 and end around the year of 1830.The movement originated in Germany and quickly spread to England,France,and other countries.It reached to America around the year of 1820.,3,Romanticism values the particular insight,It rejects any sense of rational limits to what the human imagination might know.As a movement,romanticism involved a revolt against convention and authority and a search for freedom in personal,political,and artistic life.It stressed individualism,affirmed the value of the common people.,4,Historical and social background,The French Revolution and Industrial Revolution played a huge role in influencing Romanticism.,As the French Revolution changed the lives of virtually everyone in the nation and even continent because of its drastic and immediate shift in social reformation,it greatly influenced many writers at the time.,Instead of searching for rules governing nature and human beings,the romantics searched for a direct communication with nature and treated humans as unique individuals not subject to old rules.,5,The French Revolution,6,The Industrial Revolution brought great changes to the society.The new technologies and new

the beauties of the natural world.Artists identified their personal feelings with natures changing aspects.The artist was seen as the interpreter of hidden mysteries of nature,to which end imaginative insight must combine with absolute fidelity and sincerity.Interest in transitory phenomena led painters to devote themselves to an accurate study of light and atmosphere and their effects on the landscape.And during this period,the individualism was stressed and had a strong influence on the visual arts.,13,Wandering Above the Sea of Fog,Caspar David Friedrich,1818,14,Sir Frank
