National Romanticism

National Romanticism is a cultural movement that emerged in the 19th century, emphasizing the importance of national identity, folklore, and landscapes. It celebrated unique cultural traditions and histories, often using art, literature, and music to foster a sense of belonging and pride among a nation's people. Artists and writers drew inspiration from local legends, myths, and nature, portraying them in a way that highlighted their country's distinctiveness. This movement played a critical role in shaping national consciousness and was particularly influential in countries seeking independence or cultural revival during this time.
