Essay from the year 2017 in the subject Didactics for the subject English - Literature, Works, , language: English, abstract: Conrad's "Heart of Darkness" is first and foremost a modern text, taken by many to be a deeply psychoanalytical piece of work, but the novella also carries a deeper subtext that brushes against romantic, metaphysical and absurdist notions and leaves them all justifiable. Although there is no precise definition of the term 'romanticism', it is taken as an artistic and literary movement that peaked in the earlier half of the nineteenth century. The characteristics are loosely defined as a movement in which art – particularly poetry and criticism – focused on a fascination with the exotic, unseen mystical world. This era in liberal arts, blooming mostly as a reaction to the French revolution, responded to the restrained style of classical forms of art, which was driven chiefly by an obedience to classical parameters and intellectualism rather than emotions and imagination as it was in Romantic era works. Common concepts related to romanticism are imagination, sensitivity, nature, adventure, feeling and instincts.
