Do any of you know of people who effectively communicate a critique of something like romanticism? Context: I was thinking about simple enjoyment. I can imagine a good critique of a saccharine version of that, but I’m not sure that’s a huge problem compared to almost everything.

I suspect there is something about enjoying natural beauty which could be dishonest if it denies other stuff, but I inhabit a religous world which values cutting though grasping at hope and fear......so perhaps my current experience of romantic aesthetics is slightly warped.

I’d make a lousy philosopher and know nothing about the history of romantic thought. I’m curious what you think about this, and whether you know of anyone who has written about this in an impactful/clear way
