Characteristics of Romantic literature in Latin America

Romantic literature in Latin America is characterized by an emphasis on the individual, emotionalism, and a reverence for nature and the supernatural. This movement, which originated in Europe in the late 18th century, reached Latin America in the mid-19th century and lasted until the early 20th century. Latin American romantic literature often focused on national identity, history, and folklore, and celebrated the beauty of the continent's landscapes and indigenous cultures. Many romantic Latin American writers explored the themes of love, passion, and death, often using vivid imagery and a lyrical style to convey their emotions. Along with the influence of European romanticism, this movement was also influenced by the political and social upheavals of the time, including revolutions and struggles for national liberation.
