Art- Depicted scenes from mythical lore and fantasy. Characterized by dramatic subject matter
and passionate use of colour. Unrestrained technique. Inspired by nature in all its gloryA few artists of the era- Francisco Goya, J.M.W turner, John Constable, Thomas Gainsborough, WilliamBlake
Religion- Where in the recent past, Christianity had been relegated to the bourgeoisie, during theromantic era Christianity made a return in the higher echelons of society. There was a rebellionagainst organised religion, in spite of this, the masses remained steadfast in their beliefs. Therewas a need to explore beyond the dictates of commonly held religious beliefs
Gender roles- It was during this period that women authors, artists and composers gainedrecognition and acceptance as purveyors of the creative arts. Female writers such as EmilyDickinson were for the first time able to express their views.
Mary Wallenstonecroft said that the denial of education of women was tantamount to the denial ofperson-hood. She attacked society for the definition of females as innately emotional, intuitive andillogical and incapable of rational understanding and put forward the notion that if women were to beheld morally and legally responsible for their actions, they must be considered capable of rationalthought.
