The Romantic Spirit: The Golden Age 1 - Childhood

Back


Romanticism and its themes explored in this brilliant but extremely hard-to-locate documentary, "The Romantic Spirit", which I believe was a French/British co-production from 1982. Hosted by Anthony Andrews at Keats House in Hampstead, the program featured Romantic Era greats in music and art, literature and architecture. Series highlights: Keats Byron Shelley Victor Hugo Novalis Goethe Beethoven Schumann Baudelaire Delacroix and more... In this first segment of "The Golden Age" episode, the nostalgia for childhood and the vivid imagination of childhood are profiled. Artists included: Holderlin, Robert Schumann, Novalis and others. NB: I have been trying to locate this series for many many years. If anyone has any information about how and where I can purchase it, please let me know. Thanks. Please pardon video quality: picture wiggles a few times at bottom from old VHS recording from ages ago.
