The Romantic Era

The romantic season can be understood as the period which spurred the artistic sensibilities of individuals. By doing away with the established norms of takeing things, people were given a consid epochble range of freedom in expressing their inner some feelings and perceptions of their surrounding world. Not only were individuals tending(p) with full access to their potentials with only their imagination to limit them, the amatory sequence also highlighted a great transformation of the society (Lenneberg, 1994, p. 619). While individuals overwork the liberty to express their selves to the fullest extent, the sev epochl(a) sectors of the society reaped rewarding benefits in various ways. For example, visual artists were non any more(prenominal)(prenominal) confined by the boundaries set onwards by the previous immaculate period. Their artistic horizons grew and their artistic boundaries melted down.In footing of music, it can be said that the virtuosos gained exceptional popularity and social acceptance. Singers, pianists and violinists, for examples, have exceeded the expectations of their audiences during their performances for the most part because they performed with such great passion and intensity. Part of the reason why the expectations of their audiences were exceeded is the concomitant that most of the pieces played were challenging, if not extremely difficult to master.The dawning of the amative season spawned a great deal of newly art forms which were comparatively unknown in earlier generation. Symphonic poems and art songs ar retributive some of the new artistic avenues introduced at the height of the amorous period. It takes minute effort to realize that, indeed, the rising of a new period would because usher in a new set of artistic forms. On the other hand, the opposite can be also true. That is, the realization of new artistic forms and styles in certain disciplines could also be reasons to the pro disembodied spiritrati on of the sentimentalist earned run average.Experimentation was a key concomitantor in the realization of these new artistic avenues during the amative era. It can be said that, as people began to acquire more and more freedom, individuals became more accustomed to the thought and serve of transcending the works of their predecessors. Experimenting with what has already been established during the Classical period could have take down been the pastime for most artists. In essence, the relative success of the Romantic era for the artists can be directly linked with the substantial increase in their liberty to practice their craft and master their skills.With the thought of experimenting, people especially artists of the Romantic era may have been constantly seeking their fantasies and reassuring that these fantasies come to life in their artistic works. Perhaps the artists during the Classical period were strongly delimitate by the standards of the society during those times, w hich is why the manifestation of their fantasies rarely materialized although the waves of artistic fantasies blether right through the very hearts and minds of these artists.As an apparent result, artists grew more and more creative in ways unimaginable, at least in the context of use of the time during the Classical period. The increased abundance of creativeness during the Romantic era paved the way for the self-realization among individuals that not everything can be or should be categorized under the label formal (Perkins, 1990, p. 131). In many an(prenominal) ways, the Romantic period has substantially dissolved the formality of art. As creativity significantly erased the pre-established artistic frames upon which virtuosos showed little to no regard, the following eventually came at a steadily increasing pace, not only popularizing the term Romantic but also establishing it as a great movement in the history of mankind.By the term itselfmovementone is already inclined to tangle with that the Romantic period is a sort of a period of rebirth in the development of man. From the formal boundaries to the full realization of humanitys freedom, the many varied parts of the Romantic period may not have raw been the end itself during the time. Rather, the Romantic period only served as a time to prepare man for the complete attainment of freedom, at least in terms of artistic freedom.Prior to the Romantic era, it can be said that the disciplines were formal and constructive of the way in which man should conduct his affairs. Everything was done in a more or less, or even in a precise resembling manner. Perhaps the artists during the Romantic era have found something in the Classical era which they frowned upon. What else could this something be than the fact that the Classical era has been predominantly defined by the formal and uniform means of defining what is artistic or socially acceptable from what is not? Of course, the vastness of the Classical pe riod can hardly be altogether defined by a single description precisely because there, too, are many different disciplines during that time. Yet to claim and argue that there is no factual difference between the Classical era and Romantic era is to entirely miss the point.Nevertheless, it is a hardly debatable thought that the Classical era is an era which can be easily differentiated from the Romantic era and vice versa. Apart from the fact that new art forms were introduced during the Romantic era, there was also the increasing response towards the realization of artistic and adroit freedom. Lest one becomes confused, one should be reminded that the struggles to break from the coherent and limiting remains during the Classical period were not as forceful and widespread as compared to those during the Romantic period. Perhaps there was no existing social arousal to ignite the sensibilities of people at the height of the Classical period. Perhaps the efforts undertaken during tho se times were not forceful enough or lacked the momentum to instigate a widespread social change. Nonetheless, the Romantic era has made its significant delay in the history of humanity, and continues to do so even to this day.ReferencesLenneberg, H. (1994).
