Romanticism  (浪漫主义)  was  a  literary,  artistic  and  intellectual  movement  that  originated  in  Europe  towards  the  end  of  the  18th  century.  And  it  reached  its  peak  from  1800  to  1840.
Romanticism  urged  people  to  look  at  nature  and  surroundings  from  a  scientific  point  of  view.  It  was  also  a  rebellion  against  scientific  rationalization  (合理化  )  of  nature.  It  permitted  a  person's  imagination  and  freedom  in  art.  The  concept  of  romanticism  was  present  in  all  the  major  art  forms,  like  literature,  the  visual  arts  and  music.
Friedrich  Schlegel,  a  German  philosopher,  writer  and  critic,  used  the  term  “Romantic”  for  the  first  time  to  name  a  new  school  of  literature  which  arose  in  opposition  to  “Classicism”.  Though  the  concept  of  Romanticism  was  identified  much  earlier,  critics  believe  that  Romanticism  in  English  literature  dates  from  the  Lyrical  Ballads.  The  romantics  were  very  interested  in  mystery,  ambition  and  adventure.
In  the  visual  arts,  the  term  Romanticism  refers  to  a  trend  that  appeared  in  the  19th  century,  which  was  characterized  by  opposition  to  the  classical  forms  and  its  rules.  Romanticism  in  the  visual  arts  focused  more  on  the  spiritual  and  emotional  representation  of  nostalgia(怀旧).  Romantics  used  objects,  like  wild  trees,  moonlight,  and  so  on,  to  convey  their  ideas  and  concepts.
In  music,  Romanticism  was  characterized  by  the  freedom  of  forms  and  an  emphasis  on  the  emotions.  It  was  German  composers  who  used  romanticism  widely  and  developed  this  concept.  Many  famous  composers  worked  in  smaller  forms  of  music  that  had  flexible  structure;  for  instance,  ballads,  solo  piano  music,  and  so  on.
Romanticism  influenced  the  literature  and  arts  of  the  18th  and  19th  century.  The  popularity  of  this  movement  declined  gradually  with  passing  time,  but  it  has  a  significant  place  in  the  history  of  literature  and  art  development.
