| Description | In the last 18th century, in the periods of classicism and the Enlightenment, society started to turn to the past, namely the Middle Ages. This interest escalated in the period of romanticism, in the first third of the 19th century. After the difficult era of the Napoleonic wars, patritic feelings in a number of countries increased and many of them inclined to Catolicism. The burgeoning industrial revolution inspired a backlash in efforts to preserve crafts and return to the etnic of individual manual work and craftsmanship. |
