Document Summary

You could go as far as to say that romanticism reflected a crisis in enlightenment thought itself, a crisis which shook the comfortable 18th century philosopher out of his intellectual single-mindedness. The romantics were conscious of their unique destiny. In fact, it was self-consciousness which appears as one of the keys elements of romanticism itself. Rousseau"s autobiography, the confessions (1781), began with the following words: I am commencing an undertaking, hitherto without precedent and which will never find an imitator. I desire to set before my fellows the likeness of a man in all the truth of nature, and that man myself. I know the feelings of my heart, and i know men. I am not made like any of those i have seen. I venture to believe that i am not made like any of those who are in existence.
