From its very inception in the late eighteenth century, Romanticism's celebration of euphoria and sublimity has been dogged by its equally intense fascination with melancholia, insanity, crime, the grotesque and the irrational. In 1930, the famous literary theorist Mario Praz named this strain in literature "Dark Romanticism," but its equivalent in art has never been thoroughly assessed in art history. This volume is the first to examine a current that runs from Goya's war etchings through Symbolism and up to Surrealism, presenting Romanticism as an intellectual position that was embraced throughout Europe and that endured into the twentieth century. Among the artists included are Henry Fuseli, William Blake, Caspar David Friedrich, Victor Hugo, Arnold Böcklin, Gustave Moreau, Odilon Redon, Félicien Rops, James Ensor, Max Klinger, Edvard Munch, Hans Bellmer and Max Ernst.

Romanticism is multifaceted, and a wide range of nostalgic, emotional, and exotic concerns were expressed in such styles and movements as the Gothic Revival, Classical Revival, Orientalism, and the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. Some movements were regional and subject-specific, such as the Hudson River School of landscape painting in the United States and the German Nazarene movement, which focused primarily on religious art in Rome. The movements range across Western Europe and include the United States. This dictionary will provide a fuller historical context for Romanticism and enable the reader to identify major trends and explore artists of the period. This second edition of Historical Dictionary of Romantic Art and Architecture contains a chronology, an introduction, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 300 cross-referenced entries on major artists of the romantic era as well as entries on related art movements, styles, aesthetic philosophies, and philosophers. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Romantic art.

Dive into the world of The Puppetmaster - a mysterious and handsome alpha billionaire who is out for prey as he searches for his next submissive. Brought to you by USA Today Bestselling Author Linnea May! He doesn’t just own. He makes them dance. They call him the Puppetmaster, a name that sends shivers down my spine and makes my heart race with a mix of fear and desire. I’ve heard the stories, felt the allure, and despite the warnings, I put my name on his list. I never thought he would choose me, but when he does, I know I have to surrender to his will. Now, I’m the one he’s set his sights on, and it both excites and unsettles me. I thought I could handle him, but now that I’m here, tangled in his web, I realize how naive I was. I wanted to be part of his game, to dance under his control, but I never anticipated the stakes to be so high. The Puppetmaster has a secret—one so dark and twisted that it changes everything. My heart pounds not just with fear, but with something deeper, something I can’t quite name. And now that I’m caught between my desires and the dark reality of who he truly is, will I ever be free of him again? And would I even want that? For fans of Skye Warren, Pepper Winters and Willow Winters.
