Romanticism and the Arts Preserving the Savage

Romantic Art ► The slogan of the Age of Reason was “I think therefore I am.” ► For the Romantics it became “I feel therefore I am.” ► The Romantic artist had to rise above the boundaries of logical thought and reason ► Power of the sublime ► Gothic Novels and the work of, besides Rousseau, Walter Scott, Edgar Allan Poe, Victor Hugo, and James Fennimore Cooper- Back to Nature ► New idea that an artistic work was not a self-contained whole, but something that shared many relationships internally and externally with other works of art  The music and art reflected the literature and poetry as the literature and poetry reflected the music and art.  Called upon to build dream castles from the works of Gothic literature

Variations of the Romantic Spirit ► No one single tendency ► Variety of aesthetic approaches ► Romantic realism looked at current events  Eugène Delacroix Eugène Delacroix Eugène Delacroix ► Medieval Revival- James Wyatt’s Fonthill Abbey Fonthill AbbeyFonthill Abbey ► Nationalism and Individualism- People are primarily individual human beings and secondarily citizens of a society- Lord Byron Lord ByronLord Byron ► Exoticism- Colonization exposed the west to foreign cultures which excited the passions of artists- Black Woman and Turkish Bath Black Woman and Turkish BathBlack Woman and Turkish Bath ► Landscape Painting- romantic deification of nature

Back to Nature ► Saw nature as a source of inspiration and a mirror of their own sensibilities ► Nature as awe-inspiring- Wanderer Wanderer ► Sense of preservation before it is all lost ► The Hudson River School  Highly moral imperative that they celebrate the beauty and purity of the American wilderness  Thomas Cole and the Cyclical Nature of History Cyclical Nature of HistoryCyclical Nature of History

Music ► Hybrid forms- program symphony and the symphonic poem ► Musical dramatization of a play- opera ► Purely instrumental form on the spirit of a poem ► Sequential arrangements of episodes taken from a novel- Berlioz did Scott’s Waverly and Rob Roy ► Mendelssohn wrote Songs Without Words ► Berlioz’ Fantastic Symphony became an opera with no words Fantastic Symphony Fantastic Symphony
