ROMANTIC PERIOD (1 ene 1800 año – 25 dic 1850 año)

Descripción:

Romanticism is a turning away from classicism. It may be considered a reactions against neo classicism (Not necessarily the classicism of Greece and Rome), or against what is called the Age of Reason, the Augustan Age, the Enlightenment, and the eighteenth century materialism.

The romantic writer expresses his feelings. He is imaginative, adventurous and sentimental. Romantic writing is different from orderly, logical, restrained writing of the classicist.

Writers in many places of the world were looking to Europe for their models. Works of Victor Hugo, the giant of the Romantic Movement, Lord Byron, Chateaubriand, Charles Dickens, and Spanish models were being imitated.
