The Age of Romanticism

The Romantic era was a movement of great strides in music, artistic, intellectual, and literary areas. This movement emphasized intense emotions being felt by the people all over Europe and was essential for channeling their thoughts on the wars and time of great political turmoil.

Women were great contributors to the literary movement during the Romantic era. They wanted their voices heard and their feelings about the changing times to be known. Although they haven't been studied until recently, I feel as if their perceptions about the Romantic movement are important to study to get another view on the way things were.  Their opinions and interpretations can help readers view the Romantic movement in another light. Their contributions can finally have meaning to others and be given the credit they have deserved for quite some time now.
