Romantic love is generally understood as an emotional and psychological state marked by deep affection, passion, exclusivity and commitment. It usually implies a desire for connection and physical intimacy with an idealized partner, comprising feelings of happiness, excitement and closeness, but also of vulnerability. The longing for romantic love has inspired, throughout the centuries, many writers, poets, playwrights and filmmakers. Time and time again, the highly emotive novels, poems, plays, music dramas and films depicting this extraordinary state of the heart have shown us the difficulties that people wishing to experience it have had to face.
The present thematic volume explores all aspects of the topic of romantic love from various cultures and time periods and from different academic fields - literature, religion, drama, opera, delving into some of the most famous love stories of all times.
Thus, at the beginning of the book, Mihai Valentin Vladimirescu analyses the marvelous Song of Songs, a text that has a distinctive place in the biblical literature, being renowned for its lyrical beauty and for its celebration of the passionate and tender dimensions of affection between a man and a woman. The research demonstrates how the Song of Songs, which contains the themes of longing, union and timelessness, surpasses its historical context, offering symbolic and idealized depictions of love.
In the next study, Jana Pecnikova examines how 12th-century France shaped the concept of love, while also investigating the opportunities that medieval women had to experience it. The analysis reveals that, even though the realities of life may not have embodied the romantic visions of the trouvères and troubadours at the time, the themes found in their songs continue to resonate with us today. Even centuries later, these ideals persist, inspiring our modern understanding of love.
Raluca Nicoleta Şerban delves into the iconic love story of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, shedding light on a fundamental truth often overlooked: the underlying challenge faced by the Bennet family in their quest for love and stability. The central question explored is: what kind of love can flourish when a woman's future hinges on marriage, when she is burdened by societal expectations and familial pressures? The author shows that Elizabeth Bennet's daring and unconventional approach offers a refreshing perspective, challenging the norms of her time.
The next analysis, written by Monica Alina Toma, explores the rekindling of romance in Jane Austen’s heartwarming novel Persuasion, focusing on the emotional journey that the protagonists undertake as their relationship evolves once again.
Andreea Popescu’s contribution analyzes Lord Byron's play-poem Manfred, a pivotal work within the canon of English Romantic poetry centered around the poignant theme of lost love, which finds its tragic resolution in the hero's sacrificial act of redemption. By examining the text through a romantic lens and by incurporating insights from cultural anthropology, the study explores the hero's complex emotions and reveals the play-poem's underlying message. Ultimately, it highlights the work's enduring value in English literature.
The study written by Antonia Cristiana Enache, Marina Luminiţa Militaru and Alina Maria Seica delves into the timeless tale of Tristan and Iseult, emphasizing the enduring allure of this fascinating myth. By examining the original legend and its operatic reimagining by Richard Wagner in Tristan und Isolde, the authors reveal the ways in which the German composer rewrote and reinterpreted the medieval story and uncover the complex perspectives on love, sin and transcendence which appear in these versions.
In the next chapter, Onorina Botezat, Yuliia Lysanets and Olena Bieliaieva investigate the darker facets of love in the poetry of Edgar Allan Poe and Charles Baudelaire, highlighting how their vivid imagery and haunting language capture the destructive power of obsession and the pain of loss.
The studies collected in this volume offer a diverse range of critical perspectives on romantic affection. Through close textual analysis and interdisciplinary approaches, the researchers explore the ways in which love has been shaped by psychological, religious, social and political factors. By examining the literary, religious, dramatic and operatic representations of romantic love, the authors shed light on its enduring power in space and time.
