This paper seeks to discuss the Lefebvre’s premises about a new Romanticism, understood as a return to (and overcoming) the artistic-political-philosophical movement that arose in Prussia at the end of the 18th century and revisited by Lefebvre in his efforts to theorize about the relationship between the moments of life in modernity. The effort here is to try to demonstrate that the Lefebvre’s theoretical-analytical foundation, anchored in the interpretation of modern society, the city and the urban, is also related to a philosophical basis still little discussed among Brazilian geographers who refer to it. For that, we will deal with the general assertions of Romanticism and its assimilation and decline in geographic theory, so that we can understand what the Lefebvre’s rereading can bring about innovation / overcoming in this respect and what contributions this reference has to offer to Geography.
