520 _aThe Hellenism that permeates Enlightenment philosophy is no longer the order of the day after the French revolution: the Romantics, who deem these ideas responsible for the Revolution and for France’s spiritual decline, develop in order to counter them, a form of Philochristianism which tends to liken them to the anti-revolutionary neo-catholic movement. Notwithstanding, mutual misunderstanding emerges within this questionable alliance. Romantic Christianity is, in many regards, revolutionary in its ideas, estranged from Catholicism. This divergence becomes starker as the Restoration sharpens the frustrations of a romantic generation which aspires, for France, at an ideological and social renewal. In aspiring to reconciliate society with spirituality, the Romantics switched from a counter-revolutionary attitude—hostile to the Enlightenment and to Hellenism—to a re-appropriation of this intellectual heritage, which became paramount to the construction of their ideology and imaginary.
