In what ways is romantic love culturally depicted and framed? How is it interpreted and internalized? Why are stories about romantic love so popular: the perfect soul mate, the consummate kiss, the happy ending? We'll explore romantic fantasies in all of their cultural forms to better understand how the centrality of romantic love in our culture and popular culture contributes to the centrality of romantic love in our lives.
