Long Overshadowed By The Contemporaneous American, French, And Industrial Revolutions, The Romantic Revolution Finally Receives Its Due In Tim Blannings Bold And Brilliant Work.A Rebellion Against The Rationality Of The Enlightenment, A Rejection Of The Academy In Favor Of Public Opinion, Romanticism Was A Profound Shift In Expression That Altered The Arts And Ushered In Modernity, Even As It Championed A Return To The Intuitive And The Primitive. Blanning Describes Its Beginnings In Rousseaus Novel La Nouvelle Hlose, The Biggest Bestseller Of The Eighteenth Century, A Work That Placed The Creatorand Not The Createdat The Center Of Aesthetic Activity And Led To The Virtual Worship Of Creative Geniuses By The General Public.Blanning Reveals The Glamorizing Of Artistic Madness And Suicide In Goethes Novel The Sufferings Of Young Werther And The Ballet Giselle; The Role Of Sex As A Psychological Force In Friedrich Schlegels Novel Lucinde; The Importance Of Mindaltering Drugs To The Fictional Protagonist Of Confessions Of An English Opium Eater And To The Composer Hector Berlioz In His Symphonie Fantastique; And The Use Of Nave, Dreamlike Imagery In Goyas Paintings Of Monsters, Devils, And Witches.Whether It Was The New Notion Of Sex Appeal In The Fames Of Paganini, Liszt, And Byron, Or The Celebration Of Accessible Storytelling In The Novels Of Walter Scott (The Most Popular Writer Of The Day), The Romantic Revolution Unearths The Origins Of Ideas Now Commonplace In Our Culture. It Is The Best Introduction To An Essential Time Whose Influence Would Far Outlast The Mechanistic Age Of The Railway That, In The Midnineteenth Century, Replaced It.
