1. How does Romanticism advocate for real change that would improve everyone's lives and

break the cycle of social injustice?

2. And, how does Romanticism fall short of the kind of thinking and activism that is required

to promote equality?

Answer and Explanation:

1. Romanticism advocates a social change where all individuals would be guided by strong emotions and that would highlight their true self and that would equalize people, as they would all show the same vulnerability. According to this thought, once all people were equal, there would be no need for rules established by the bourgeoisie or royalty that privileged the members of these groups, causing injustice to individuals who did not belong to these groups.

2. In this case, romanticism reinforces the thought that individuals from lower social classes must impose themselves, assume an activist position and overthrow the system that oppresses them. This imposition is also carried out with strong and imposing feelings and thoughts.
