I do not know if this is a multiple-choice question or not, but the answer is in reason. Enlightenment and Romanticism were movements with diametrically opposing views. While the former believed in universality, in perfection, in uniformity, in progress, and in rationalism, the latter believed in individuality, in imperfection, in change, in diversity, in relativity, in irrationality, and, most importantly, in emotion. Romanticism rejected reason and everything rational in favor of passion, intuition, imagination, and instinct. Romantic writers, thinkers, and artists believed in, and they were terrified by, the existence of supernatural forces or powers that could not be explained rationally. They were, in short, eager to break free from the dogmas of the past and embrace their individual impulses and feelings, their dreams and their fantasies, even if these were not completely logical.
