  • P&P
  • GUM: As spokesmen of their cultures many Romantics: turned to a past or inner dream world that they felt was more picturesque more magical than the ugly industrial age they lived in. They also believed in individual liberty, and sympathized with those who rebelled against tyranny. Additionally they thought of nature as transformative; and were fascinated by the ways nature and the human mind “mirrored” the other’s creative properties.
