Abstract

The Romantic movement skillfully intertwines the power of a feeling liberated to its own devices, the uprooting from the order of being caused by the surreptitious workings of secularization, and the profoundly human yearning for redemption. We will attempt to reflect on whether it is valid to think of a Paradise that is in perpetual flight and whether it is possible to reach it based on the essential premises that Romanticism upholds in its programmatic manifesto.
