Changes

The term "Romanticism" was coined because it originated in European regions of the "Romance Languages," namely French, Spanish and Italian. German and British Romanticism followed soon after. Other countries such as [[America]] and [[Canada]] also had Romantic art movements. Romanticism was a rebellion against [[Neoclassical|Neo-Classicism]], a movement that preceded it in the late 1600s and 1700s, and which obsessed with intellect while ignoring freedom and imagination.

[[Eugene Delacroix]] (1798-1863) was perhaps the most important of the [[French]] Romantic painters; in English literature, the Romantic movement was started by Lyrical Ballads (1798), poems co-authored by [[William Wordsworth]] (a ballad is a narrative poem), and additional poetry by the Englishmen [[John Keats]] and [[Samuel Taylor Coleridge]].
