Abstract

Romanticism added a new meaning to literature, it became a form of artistic mastery of the world, in the center of which was a person.


The best manifestation of the poetry of the romanticists is the poetry of Lord Byron. Despite the fact that the world sadness is characteristic of his work, Byron always aspired to something new and progressive with his way of life and artistic thinking.


It is worth noting that “Byron’s poetry became a kind of benchmark in the European space, which was compared to all outstanding romanticists of his time and determined the quality of their works” (Vardoshvili).


Despite the fact that Baratashvili is a national poet, his lyrical world resonates with universal thoughts. This is, first of all, the question of a human being’s purpose in society, which romanticism introduced into literature.


Materialistic worldview, revolutionary spirit, the principle of telling the truth and protest against the existing reality are the basis of theoretical thinking of Heine as well as his artistic creation.


One of the eye-catching forms of the work by Mickiewicz is a freedom-loving lyric, which reflected his revolutionary-patriotic sentiments.


Romanticism declared a fight against all the old and outdated and established new ideas in human consciousness and society. It put a man at the center of the universe with his feelings, the inner world, and thus fought against classicist literature and its norms.
