The Romantic era was an artistic, literary, and intellectual movement that originated in Europe and spread to the United States from approximately 1770 to 1850. This movement was largely a reaction to the Industrial Revolution.  

Components of Romanticism include all or a few of these common characteristics:

• high emotion
• a reverence for nature
• critique of a newly industrialized society (often pro-human rights, pro-environment and pro-equality)
• both real-life characters with real-life issues (often with hero-worship)
• a sense of the exotic and fantastical

Specific titles of Romantic-era art include:

1.              “Le Miserables,” a novel written by Victor Hugo

2.              “Giselle,” the oldest continually performed ballet

3.              “Fidelio,” a German opera composed by Beethoven (this is his only opera!)
