One way to hold this word: feeling and imagination walking in front of reason. A small boat under an enormous sky; the storm mattering more than the rule book. Whether that is a movement in art, a warm quality in a place, or a plan that ignores the numbers depends only on where you point it.
From the word’s history
The word is romantic plus -ism. Behind romantic lies Old French romanz, the everyday tongue and the tales told in it, which is why a taste for story sits under the whole word.
這個字可以想成 romantic 加上 -ism。romantic 這條線往前是古法文 romanz——大眾語言,以及用它寫成的傳奇故事。所以整個字底下一直藏著「像故事一樣」的味道。
