It’s no wonder most Romantic writers are INFP : Coleridge, Wordsworth, Keats, Becquer (Spanish), Chateaubriand… and many of the Romantic movements ideals are Fi-Ne to its core. This is a movement established by INFPS “The importance the Romantics placed on emotion is summed up in the remark of the German painter Caspar David Friedrich, "the artist's feeling is his law".For William Wordsworth, poetry should begin as "the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings", (Fi) which the poet then "recollect[s] in tranquility", (Si) evoking a new but corresponding emotion the poet can then mould into art.” (Ne) Therefore, Fi-ideas get filed away by Si and later recalled again to try and awaken its corresponding feeling (Ne-driven ideas,) through art. “As well as rules, the influence of models from other works was considered to impede the creator's own imagination, so that originality was essential. The concept of the genius, or artist who was able to produce his own original work through this process of creation from nothingness, is key to Romanticism, and to be derivative was the worst sin. “
Biography
Romanticism (also known as the Romantic era) was an artistic, literary, musical and intellectual movement that originated in Europe towards the end of the 18th century, and in most areas was at its peak in the approximate period from 1800 to 1890. Romanticism was characterized by its emphasis on emotion and individualism as well as glorification of all the past and nature, preferring the medieval rather than the classical. It was partly a reaction to the Industrial Revolution, the aristocratic social and political norms of the Age of Enlightenment, and the scientific rationalization of nature—all components of modernity. It was embodied most strongly in the visual arts, music, and literature, but had a major impact on historiography, education, the social sciences, and the natural sciences. It had a significant and complex effect on politics, with romantic thinkers influencing liberalism, radicalism, conservatism, and nationalism.
