National Romanticism is an artistic and cultural movement that emerged in the late 18th and 19th centuries, primarily in Europe. It emphasized the importance of national identity, folklore, and the natural landscape, often celebrating the unique characteristics of a nation. This movement sought to inspire pride in one's heritage and culture, drawing on historical events, myths, and traditional customs. In literature, music, and visual arts, National Romanticism often featured themes of nature, nationalism, and the glorification of the past. Notable figures associated with this movement include Johann Gottfried Herder and Edvard Grieg, who contributed to the development of national identities through their works.
