This is a personal experience and a common trope in literature: a person, a character or a speaker feels an instant romantic attraction, extreme and lasting, from a stranger to the first glimpse of that stranger. Described by poets and critics since the rise of ancient Greece, it has become one of the most common tropes in Western fiction.
Historical conception
In the classical world, love to love, love to love, love to love ,. "Frecce d'amore" or "darts of love", "arrows of love" or "darts of love", "darts of love" or "arrows of love" whose origin is often mythological, or of other mythological deities (such as If you have not seen these images, you can not lose them and can not do anything else.) Disease) The image of the "arrow wound" has sometimes been used to create rhymoric oxymorons and antitheses.
"Love at first sight" was presented as a sudden and immediate seduction of the lover through the action of these processes, and is illustrated in numerous Greek and Roman works. In Ovid's Metamorphoses, Narcissus immediately becomes entranced and enchanted by his (without his knowledge). In Leucippe and Clitofonte by Achille Tatius, the lover Clitofon describes his experience of the phenomenon: "I was lost". Love is in the past, but now they have become many emotions. "Love at first sight" was not the only way to insert passionate love in classical texts; Passion can occur after the initial meeting or before the first glance of the Symposium of Plato in describing the separation of dual primitive creatures in modern men and women and their subsequent search for his missing half: "... when [lover] .. He is fortunate enough to meet the other half , both are so intoxicated by affection, friendship and love that can not stand the others.
This doctrine of the immediate visual perception of the woman herself as a prerequisite for the birth of love originates from the "beaux esprits" of Provence. According to this description, love originates in the lady's eyes when she meets her future lover. His love for her, that she passes to her, in her abode in her heart.
Giovanni Boccaccio offers the most memorable examples in his film, which mixes tradition of love at first sight, darts eyes and metaphor of Cupid's arrow, "Neither he (Troilo) who was so wise so shortly before ... perceive that love with his darts in the rays of those beautiful eyes ...
William Shakespeare pays a beautiful tribute (posthumously) to Christopher Marlowe, who in turn wrote: "Who loved those who did not love, not at first sight?" in his poem of 1598, Hero and Leander, when they quote him the following year, As You Like It: "Dead Shepherd, now I find your power: who has ever loved it at first sight?"
Love and eyes, arrows and the ravages of "love at first sight", has continued to circulate and developed in the literature of the Renaissance and Baroque periods, and play an important role in Western fiction and especially in the novel, such as Jean. Rousset.
