What is romance? – Books
We all know how romantic elements are in romeo and juliet, which is written by shakespeare. The finale of this book, in which the readers wonder more and more, does not end happily. So is this romanticism? We know that literature is subjective. There is no "right" or "wrong" in literature, but when romanticism is mentioned in such an art that appeals to feelings, we wonder whether death comes to mind. It must be difficult to see characters who are unhurt and uninjured in such fiction texts. There may be those who want to stay true to this royal tradition, but remember that stories involving happy couples can also be called romance.
