Was there a named political movement associated with 19th century romanticism (1800-50)? Would it be correct to identify it with pre-Marxist socialism? Would make sense since culturally it was a reaction to late 18th century enlightenment liberalism (~1750-1800 by my reckoning)

not sure anything big enough to be called a movement would also be called socialist before Marx. I know old lefties felt part of a lineage that went back to French Revolution, but they were on the side of reason and enlightenment. (they thought Marx was science)

Yeah that’s why I was trying to find a political counterpart. Somebody recently said all ideologies are aesthetics and I tend to agree. Where there’s a mood there’s an ideology.

tldr of my view of politics of subjective/objective: Objective views of subjectivisms tend to create institutions. Subjective views of objectivisms tend to drive revolutions.
