Romance of 1500-1800 century

The last post I ended describing 1500 to 1850 as goldan era of art. Because of the raise of Shakespere, Wordsworth, Milton, Michale Angelo, Beethoven, Mozart, Leonardo Da Vinci etc. I am just visualizing the kind of romances happening in those times. How did the Shakespere get the idea of Romeo and Juliet? The story of Romeo and Juliet clearly signifies that society was heart based. Even if it's fiction, it does depict the kind of love spreaded in the society. Otherwise there is no possibility that someone can write a story like Romeo and Juliet. It brings my visualization to the Oxford university. The romances happening in the campus of Oxford university in those times. Remember in those times there were no electricity, no internet, no cars, traints, no planes etc. I wanted to study into Oxford university but couldn't anyway...but gonna spend some time there for sure. England is definitely the pioneer in the university education. There university education started long back. Oxford university was founded in 12th century. That startecdthe educational revolution in England. No wonder England had produced so many philosopher's, scientist. India had been slightly unfortunate those times due to reign fo Mughals. Anyways, I am visualizing the professors of oxford university teaching the story of Romeo and Juliet to the students. And there must be many couples among those student. Because, in those times there were no scientific subjects. There were no Newton's laws in their syllabus. The whole of the education was full of love and art. I am sure those time would had prodced the finest couples. Imagine the couples walking in the morning on grass wet with dew inside the campus of oxford university. Talkings in the garden with red flowers in the autumn. I didnt' see such gardens in India. A walk in the moonlitnight ;-) there can by many such romantic things to do in the campus of oxford university.
