Enlightenment Vs Romanticism
Enlightenment vs Romanticism
The enlightenment was an 18th century movement that emphasized reason to change society and advance knowledge. The enlightenment changed how people all over Europe, and later North America, thought about religion, hierarchy, monarchy, and science. People began to question the church and there was a loss of unity in the christian church. It was a time in which people began to think more about themselves without the influence of the government and their church. The enlightenment brought an age of rational, scientific and secular thinking. The Enlightenment resulted in greater freedom and more humane treatment for all individuals as well as the scientific process.
Romanticism was an artistic and intellectual movement that originated in late 18th century. It emphasized on individual’s expression of emotions and imagination. Some people see it as the opening to modernity and others see it as the as the beginning of a tradition of resistance to the enlightenment. I see Romanticism as the new movement for cultural and aesthetic values and the rise of individualism. The way I understand it, enlightenment is more about basic morality and knowledge. Romanticism is more self-oriented, more about self-discovery. If I had to choose to which side I favor the most I’d go with the enlightenment because I believe more about that man are created equal and that education is important. However I can also favor romanticism because I believe every individual deserves freedom but also need to follow the rules so that we can be an orderly society.
