This is not an orthodox or liturgical Requiem, and Brahms didn't have traditional religious views; he chose his own texts, and set German texts rather than Latin ones. The piece in its final seven-movement form developed over a period of time, the fifth movement (soprano solo) being the last to be composed.

What is the name of the Beethoven masterpiece commonly known as The i th?

I'm guessing you are referring to the masterpiece called the 9th. This is Beethoven's 9th symphony in d minor, opus 125, also referred to sometimes as the "Glorious Ninth". It was the last symphony Beethoven completed. It is well known for several reasons, but mostly for a melody called 'Ode to Joy.' This melody is part of the 4th movement.

What is a proto-romantic?

In, Proto-Romantic usually refers to the generation of musicians between the Classical era (Mozart, Haydn) and the Romantic Era (Schumann, Mendelssohn).

In that sense, proto-romantic usually refers to the lesser composers that were writing in the very early part of the 19th century.
