On Roses, beauty and freedom – German Romanticism and its legacy today
November 17, 2022 @ 19:00 - 21:00
Free admissionWith references to music, art and literature, this presentation will explore the main characteristics of German Romanticism and its influence in today’s everyday life. We will offer examples of how our contemporary sense of artistic sensibility, collective consciousness, “European” identity, and emotional expression, reveal unlikely and unexpected connections with the Romantic approach to life, art and identity. Indeed, this historical movement in art and literature has left us with a legacy that influences our values today and features in many aspects of contemporary popular culture.
Presenters:
Dr. Ina Sammler, Lecturer at the University of Cyprus
Prof. Dr. Stavros Karayiannis, Dean of School of Humanities, Social and Education Sciences, European University of Cyprus
