Strong littérature and théâtre culture
We are the most romanticized culture because we are historically the most literate culture (china and japan also and surprise they also have heavily romanticized culture)
Its literally as shrimple as that, the vast majority of writting in Indonesian history was religious shit that dont really add anything there was no culture of wealthy women eating up fiction books

The great thing about dragons is that they are in many cultures, east and west. Everyone always thought that the idea of a large reptile was cool. And then it turns out that there did in fact exist dragons, long ago (dinosaurs).

The phrase "here be dragons" was used on maps long ago to indicated unexplored areas that were believed to be dangerous. Today, the phrase is used humorously for similar purposes. The Latin phrase is "Hic sunt Dragones".

I bet that Indonesia came up with its own version of dragons at some point! Don't be so gloomy!

Romanticism like any modern cultural development become possible thanks to Renaissance recovering the Greco-Roman tradition. Greeks had drama, magic, even a fucking novel about travelling to the moon.
>>
>>215152042
European arts used to swing between a "feels" medievalist side and a rational classicist side. Romanticism is definitively on the feels side and came as reaction against the Enlightenment, just like baroque was a reaction to renaissance Humanism
>>
>>215152383
True that. Although I feel Sturm und Drang, the source of romanticism and often romanticism at large is rather both. In practice classicizing the medieval. As another example Goethe & co were classifying arts and crafts and modes of their practice and developing a rather autistic aesthetic theory.

Because Europeans mastered aesthetics.
Even their religion is cool because it looks cool.

Whats with these geriatrics?

>>215151129
Lol. Most of the knights shit were done by French romantic pooftas. They bastardized King Arthur so much that Tolkien said fuck it and wrote a new non-French mythos from the ground up.
>>
>>215151129
They just good at represent it

>>215151268
Everything cool in Asia is either Chinese or derived from something Chinese
The only relevant "contribution" that Japan shat out is an*me (deranged cargo cult parody of western cartoons for degenerate autists)

I think not being muslim has something to do with love for romanticism.

>>215156048
I think the ottomans are also still pretty neat. I'm not even muslim. The turks are euro, right?
>>
>>215156112
What I mean is this kind of romaticism doesn't go well with islamic culture.
Turks aren't culturally european even if there is some influence given the proximity.
>>
>>215151129
Most of it is just fabricated and repackaged Muslim history.

>This guy believes in all these princess-knights-dragon shit

Dude, we were a bunch of brutes fighting for what now would be a minuscule plots of land, and occasionally we get rid of our excess of gentlemen by making them to try to conquer foreign land because of "Deus Vult".
At least we got rid of Islam for a while...

Arab Romanticism might be a thing I dunno. The religion is just too restrictive for romanticism I suppose.
