Catalan Literary Renaissance and Modernism: A Comprehensive Guide

Catalan Literary Renaissance

Romanticism (Late 18th – Mid 19th Century)

A literary and artistic movement emerging as a consequence of the French Revolution (1789-1792), Romanticism opposed Neoclassicism by:

  • Rejecting rigid rules in art
  • Championing passion, feeling, and individualism
  • Expressing dissatisfaction and escapism from reality
  • Defending freedom and exalting oppressed rebels

Romanticism significantly contributed to the rise of national consciousness.
