Detailed Solution

The emphasis on vernacular language and collecting local folklore was meant to reach vast, largely illiterate audiences while conveying a contemporary nationalist message. However, this was particularly true in the case of Poland, which had been divided at the end of the eighteenth century by the Great Powers- Russia, Prussia, and Austria.
In addition, romantics, like the German philosopher Johann Gottfried Herder (1744–1803), claimed that regular people might be where authentic German culture could be discovered (das Volk). Folk dances, poems, and songs were used to spread the true spirit of the country (Volksgeist). As a result, constructing a nation depended on gathering and documenting numerous forms of folk culture.
Hence both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
