The Rime Movement refers to a significant shift in the artistic and literary landscape during the late 18th and early 19th centuries, primarily in Europe. It emphasized emotional expression, individualism, and a connection to nature, contrasting with the structured forms of the preceding Neoclassicism. This movement is often associated with the Romanticism period, which celebrated imagination and personal experience. Key figures in the Rime Movement include poets like William Wordsworth and Samuel Taylor Coleridge, who sought to capture the beauty of the natural world and human emotion in their works. The movement also influenced various art forms, including painting and music, promoting themes of freedom and the sublime.
