romanticism & emo (lyric, country, doors, Europe, classic)

do u think romanticism (u know, XVII-XIX centuries, not the one of romantic novels lol, u know what i mean) is related to emo? well, i think so...i don't even know why i write this, maybe u just don't like reading...do you?

To me it could be quite similiar because Romantism was a revolution to the classical era where everything was based on reason and thought. Romantism and Emo focus on the emotion and not order. The one difference between them is that Romantics loved nature and the outdoors and I don't really see that in Emo music...

Well compare the works. True, no bands really sing about the relevance of outdoors and our reliance on society, but all the bands usually implement a lot about dreaming and stuff.

But i dont think the two are related.

How the **** is feudal Japan/China suppose to be related to emo? God this stuff is getting pathetic.

Feudal Japan? The Romanticism era was an time of Romantic writing in England. Frankenstein by Mary Shelly is Romantic.

Feudal japan/china was the "romantic" period in those countries. Baisically in Japan, the Japanese "renasaince" and reformation of the land. New forms of dialect and writing, arts, and romantic warfare.

Just as you could consider the medieval Europe as a romantic period. An extremely emotional and romantic period. KNights devoted themselves to the code of chivalry and there lords and fiamiley. The whole thing was very heroic and "romantic" (if you dont think about the black plague, great schism etc etc)

In my defense I am under the impression that the person intended this thread to be on the romantic areas of history as they wrote

" XVII-XIX centuries, not the one of romantic novels"

Directly specifying that there not refering to romantic literature at all. So what is it evil? Clrify this big mess for us all.

The Romantic Era was specifically in Europe, mainly Britain, from the publishing of the Lyrical Balads to the Voter Reform Bill. Those are actual specific dates.
