• The poets and romantic artists tried to create a sense of shared collective heritage, a common cultural past, as the basis of nationalism. Some Romantics, like the German philosopher Johann Gottfried Herder, tried through folk songs, folk poetry and folk dances to popularise the true spirit of the nation.
