 National Romanticism in Finnish Literature, Painting, and Architecture
National Romanticism produced literature linked with a cultural national identity.
The Kalevala and the works of Runeberg and Topelius, both very patriotic writers, were read at schools and during the years of National Romanticism they served as inspiration to many writers, but also foreign influences, especially Nietzsche, contributed to the literature of the period.
National Romantic architects were influenced by British and American architects and the Vienna Secession and the Jugendstil movements in Germany and the Netherlands.

 Romantic nationalism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In Scandinavia and the Slavic parts of Europe especially, "national romanticism" provided a series of answers to the 19th-century search for styles that would be culturally meaningful and evocative, yet not merely historicist.
After the 1870s "national romanticism", as it is more usually called, became a familiar movement in the arts.
Romantic nationalism, which had begun as a revolt of "foreign" kings and overlords, had come full circle, and was being used to make the case for a "Greater Germany" which would rule over Europe.

Arthur Lovejoy, the founder of the " history of ideas," attempted to demonstrate the difficulty of this problem in his seminal article "On The Discrimination of Romanticisms." Successive generations of scholars have engaged with this question, with some believing that a general description of Romanticism is possible, and others arguing against it.

Of course, under national romanticism lyricism managed to express itself quite vocally, but whatever power it had came from the fever and authority of national sentiment that underwrote and monitored it.
The triumph of national romanticism is responsible for shaping the concept of the Polish poet as national destiny’s supreme interpreter (Mickiewicz), its inspired visionary (Slowacki), or its shrewd dialectician (Krasinski).
Such is the grip of the romantic imagination that the avant-garde poetry has been deemed incapable of addressing the nation’s collective imponderabilia, inadequate to the task of uplifting and perfecting the national soul.

National Renaissance, nurturing the Albanian as a language of culture, the organisation of national education and the establishment of a national literature on the cultural level as well as the creation of the independent state  these were the goals of this movement which gave birth to the school of Albanian Romanticism.
It was inspired by the ideas of national Romanticism and Enlightenment, which were cultivated among the circles of Albanian intelligentsia, mainly émigrés in the old Albanian settlements in Italy and the more recent ones in Istanbul, Bucharest, USA, Sophia and Cairo.
The first is the Albanian romantic poet brought up in the climate of European Romanticism, the second is the Albanian romanticist who merges in his poetry the influence of Eastern poetry, especially Persian, with the spirit of the poetry of Western Romanticism.

 NGA - Romantics and Realists
More than defining a style, romanticism suggests an inspiration in the creative imagination and an intense, personal response.
Romantic has always been an elusive label -- in 1836 one wag concluded that romanticism "consisted in not shaving, and in wearing vests with heavily starched lapels." Delacroix, who in fact declined to identify himself as a romantic, is often set opposite the "classical" Ingres.
In 1846 the poet and critic Charles Baudelaire answered his own question "What is romanticism?" by calling it "a manner of feeling." (continue)

 Romanticism
Romanticism is the first international European movement: it is "International" but takes up a particular flavor or aspect according to each country.
There are national variations of Romanticism and each nation has its specific character, even if the movement takes place simultaneously in different countries.
Romanticism is affecting every country but each one has a different interpretation of it, according to its particular situation.

 Symposium Obdobja 19 - Methods and Genres
Particularly in Slavic Romanticism or, rather, in Central and South-Eastern Europe a special role was assigned to the so-called national epic poem, i.e., to the genres of narrative poetry, which derived their material from the crucial historical and political events that were related to the ethnicity in whose language they were written.
The goal of our symposium is to undertake a thorough analysis of the romantic epic poem and its genres, with a particular emphasis on the "national" epic and Prešeren's "The Baptism on the Savica." This is one way it desires to make a contribution to the jubilee Prešeren year.
Because of their genre prestige this identity also received aesthetic affirmation in the broader context of "world literature." Thus "national" romantic epic poems were placed at the core of the literary canon and were transformed into imaginaria, which literary authors and the literary public referred to in the periods that followed.

 Romanticism On the Net 19 (August 2000)
National missions were interpreted variously: England's was based on historical and political example, Frances's on a revolutionary political revelation, and Germany's on the civilizing influence of its intellectual, artistic, and cultural achievement.
This is not exactly a "secularization" of religious prophecy, but a symbolic rather than literal appropriation of it, enabled by the constitutive, performative role of language that could further national identity and engage in a dialectical relationship with history itself.
Following Coleridge, Perkins argues that the "idea" of the nation is incarnated in particular discourses including law, sovereignty (the monarch both as divinely anointed and as representative of the general will), society, and the relation between church and state.

 Nature and the American Identity
Romanticism set up opposition to the Neoclassic insistence on order and hierarchy by championing individual freedom through man's relationship to nature.
Romanticism in painting drew its inspiration in part from American neoclassicism, a genre which relied on European landscape iconography to paint the American continent as a mythological land.
On one hand, the wilderness is the font of national traits and the foundation of a national identity; on the other, the exploitation and depletion of the wilderness helped build cities and make millionaires.

In Finland Eliel Saarinen brought an Art Nouveau flavour to the National Romanticism current in the years around 1900.
This was in a Wagner-inspired style that Plecnik developed in the 1930s in a fascinating series of buildings, especially in his native city of Ljubljana, now in Slovenia.
His Helsinki Railway Station (1906-14) is close to the work of Olbrich and the Viennese Secessionists.

 Swedish national romantic architecture
When being short of money, the choice was easy between the expensive handicraft and the cheap industrial manufacture, so despite the ambitions of "beauty to all" the national romanticism therefore became a phenomenon for the elites.
By their negative attitude towards the industrialization the national romanticism became however a movement that in some respects worked against the developments of time.
Paulsson also made an assault upon other principles of the national romanticism.

Following this idea, Lane submits a third chapter entitled “The Search for a New Monumental Architecture,” in which the continuity between National Romanticism in the domestic realm and public building is discussed.
These two chapters form the core of Lane’s exposition of the stylistic and social implications of National Romanticism, chapters in which a concentration on the influence of Scandinavia challenges the pervasive Germano-centric nature of most histories of the birth of modern architecture.
Lane’s book provides the most comprehensive account of National Romanticism to date, thoroughly researched from sources in five different languages.

 artnet.com: Resource Library: National Romanticism
National Romanticism was a mid- and late 19th-century coalescence of two potent ideologies and was linked to the struggle for political legitimacy for a circumscribed geographic region.
Thus, National Romanticism arose in response to a sense of intrusive internationalism that was perceived to weaken a sense of unity within a single geographic group.
The notions of Volksgeist propelling a nation’s culture expounded by JOHANN GOTTFRIED HERDER and Johann Gottfried Fichte (1762–1814), and the theories of HIPPOLYTE TAINE linking race and milieu, were important underpinnings for the affirmation of National Romanticism: a nation’s faith in a unified culture and in the uniqueness of its people.

 The Identity of Latvian National Culture
There is a problem whether national cultural identity can be named if, with good reason, it has been said that national identity mostly is irrational, metaphysical and elusive.
Yet another is book publishing: the huge editions of poetry books (up to 35 000 copies for a nation of 1.5 million) and the great number of choirs among which about a dozen have won top prizes at international festivals.
Culture, understood as a quality of national self-confidence, can achieve safety only in a politically guaranteed space.

 Internationales Symposium Finnland um 1900 - Kunst als Wegbereiter
Stone buildings were usually regarded as "modern" architecture, sometimes even "ultramodern." In later 20th-century scholarship and literature, the term "National Romanticism" has been used loosely and inclusively to refer to any turn-of-the-century building that is not an obvious offshoot of an existing international movement, and is characterised by non-classical, expressive treatment of form and materials.
According to the architect Ivar Aminoff, the winning design marked a historic decision: lacking an existing tradition upon which to base its representative national architecture, his view was that this "small Finnish nation" had no choice but to attach itself to the mainstream Germanic/Anglo-Saxon tradition, unless of course, it wished to consign itself to obscurity.
Strengell considered the rationalist strand to be "cosmopolitan," and the romantic strand as inherently "national." Romantic architecture assumed such a rich variety of forms in different countries that Strengell saw no point in attempting to list international samples of this style.

 Romanticism and Slovak Folktales
Romanticism, a philosophy which appeared in Western Europe, was first manifested in artistic endeavors.
He noted, "The past belonged to the Romanesque nations, the present belong to the Germanic nations, but the future will belong to the Slavic peoples." German Romanticism emphasized the dignity and moral spirit of the common people.
In Slovakia, Romanticism was introduced in the 1830's, having been brought from Germany by those Slovak Lutheran intellectuals who had studied at German universities in Jena and Halle.
