Content: Our thoughts and feelings are nothing of any
importance either way! We are just carbon molecules or the
twitchings of eternity. Some philosophers were taken aback by this tendency, both before and
after Comte and Hegel. They felt that, for human beings, it was
our own day-to-day living that was the center of our search for the
truth. Reason and the evidence of our senses were important, no
doubt, but they mean nothing to us unless they touch our needs, our
feelings, our emotions. Only then do they acquire meaning. This "meaning" is what the Romantic movement is all about. I will focus on several philosophers that I believe most influenced
psychology. First is Jean-Jacques Rousseau, who is often
considered the father of Romanticism. And the last is Friedrich
Nietzsche, who is sometimes considered the greatest Romantic.
