Romantic Era
Romanticism (also known as the Romantic movement or Romantic era) was an artistic and intellectual movement that originated in Europe towards the end of the 18th century. The purpose of the movement was to advocate for the importance of subjectivity, imagination, and appreciation of nature in society and culture in response to the Age of Enlightenment and the Industrial Revolution. Romanticists rejected the social conventions of the time in favour of a moral outlook known as individualism. They argued that passion and intuition were crucial to understanding the world, and that beauty is more than merely an affair of form, but rather something that evokes a strong emotional response. With this philosophical foundation, the Romanticists elevated several key themes to which they were deeply committed: a reverence for nature and the supernatural, an idealization of the past as a nobler era, a fascination with the exotic and the mysterious, and a celebration of the heroic and ...

Romantic (album)
''Romantic'' is the second studio album by American punk rock band Mannequin Pussy. Reception Writing for ''The A.V. Club'', Zoe Camp rated this release an A−, calling it "an uptick in Mannequin Pussy’s caustic potential" with the addition of new band members that includes a blend of Crass-style hardcore punk as well as "pop bliss". Two critics at NPR gave a spotlight to this music: Lars Gotrich of ''First Listen'' called the album "wildly diverse and cathartic" that expresses a variety of emotions across several rock music genres and Marissa Lorusso chose the title track for ''Songs We Love'' for the combination of "instrumental muscle" and "surprisingly vulnerable poetry". Pitchfork Media's Raymond Cummings rated ''Romantic'' a 7.6 out of 10, stating that a "wild energy animates" the music and opining that this music gels better as an album than their previous release. At ''PunkNews'', Renaldo69 made this a staff pick and stated that this is "a record that wanders more f ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Romantic Friendship
A romantic friendship (also passionate friendship or affectionate friendship) is a very close but typically non-sexual relationship between friends, often involving a degree of physical closeness beyond that which is common in contemporary Western societies. It may include, for example, holding hands, cuddling, hugging, kissing, giving massages, or sharing a bed, without sexual intercourse or other sexual expression. The term is typically used in historical scholarship, and describes a very close relationship between people of the same sex during a period of history when there was not a social category of ''homosexuality'' as there is today. In this regard, the term was coined in the later 20th century in order to retrospectively describe a type of relationship which until the mid-19th century had been considered unremarkable but since the second half of the 19th century had become rarer as physical intimacy between non-sexual partners came to be regarded with anxiety.

Romance (love)
Romance or romantic love is a feeling of love for, or a strong attraction towards another person, and the courtship behaviors undertaken by an individual to express those overall feelings and resultant emotions. The ''Wiley Blackwell Encyclopedia of Family Studies'' states that "Romantic love, based on the model of mutual attraction and on a connection between two people that bonds them as a couple, creates the conditions for overturning the model of family and marriage that it engenders." This indicates that romantic love can be the founding of attraction between two people. This term was primarily used by the "western countries after the 1800s were socialized into, love is the necessary prerequisite for starting an intimate relationship and represents the foundation on which to build the next steps in a family." Alternatively, ''Collins Dictionary'' describes romantic love as "an intensity and idealization of a love relationship, in which the other is imbued with extr ...

Romantic?
''Romantic?'' is the sixth studio album by English synth-pop band the Human League. It was issued by Virgin Records in 1990 and was the band's first album of new material in four years. ''Romantic?'' had several producers, most notably Martin Rushent, who worked with the Human League on their biggest commercial success (1981's '' Dare'') and had walked out of the recording sessions for its 1984 follow-up (''Hysteria''). Also producing several tracks is Mark Brydon, who would be one half of musical duo Moloko several years later. At the time of the album's release, the Human League had reached the nadir of a decline in popularity following the success of ''Dare'' nine years prior; this fall from grace was reflected in the song "The Stars Are Going Out", in which the band reflects upon their loss of fame and its impact on them; the song one writer called a "pointless and bland filler," was ditched as a potential third single. The album signalled a critical and commercial low po ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
