6. Love in The Renaissance
Love in the Renaissance was influenced by the courtly love, a reaction to the puritanical views of the Catholic Church.
In the renaissance is also present a new vision of the body and its revalutation, so the figure of the woman was exalted.
But in the renaissance the marriages was often political not based on love.

7. Love in W.Shakespeare
Love in Shakespeare is a force of nature, earthy and sometimes uneasy.
We can divide love into courtly love, unrequited love,compassioinate love and sexual love with skill and heart.

8. Romantic Love
 Shakespeare presents this as a force of nature, so strong that it transcends societal conventions.
Perhaps Romeo and Juliet's love is fate - there love is given cosmic significance which can therefore overturn the social boundaries.

9. Other Types of Love
This platonic love is offset by the sexual innuendos made by some characters – particularly Juliet’s Nurse and Mercutio. Their view of love is earthy and purely sexual, creating an effective contrast with Romeo and Juliet’s romanticism.
