Joseph Freiherr von Eichendorff wrote a poem called Die blaue Blume (The blue flower).
Romantic poetry invariably deals with longing not a definite, formulated desire for some obtainable object, but a dim, mysterious aspiration, a trembling unrest, a vague sense of kinship with the infinite, and a consequent dissatisfaction with every form of happiness which the world has to offer." Thomas Carlyle offered this, that the blue flower "being Poetry, the real object, passion and vocation of young Heinrich, which, through manifold adventures, exertions and sufferings, he is to seek and find." Use of the symbol "It is meant to symbolize the deep and sacred longings of a poet's soul. "This blue flower is the watchword and sacred symbol of the school," according to H.H. After contemplating a meeting with a stranger, the young Heinrich von Ofterdingen dreams about a blue flower which calls to him and absorbs his attention. German author Novalis introduced the symbol into the Romantic movement through his unfinished coming-of-age story, entitled Heinrich von Ofterdingen. It symbolizes hope and the beauty of things. It stands for desire, love, and the metaphysical striving for the infinite and unreachable. Centaurea cyanus, common in the native lands of NovalisĪ blue flower ( German: Blaue Blume) was a central symbol of inspiration for the Romanticism movement, and remains an enduring motif in Western art today.
