From the mystical affections in ancient Egypt to the passionate sonnets of the Renaissance, let’s discover how our ancestors celebrated love and how these expressions have shaped our modern understanding of romance. A Love That Transcends Time Ancient…

She keeps my pieces together. Isn’t that love? Isn’t the letter she wrote? Isn’t the necklace she chose? Isn't remembering details about me or hearing my rants? Physical affection, in reality, you can get from anyone, but showing yourself to someone in the continuous question:

“Can you love me?”

And the fact that the answer keeps being:

“Yes, I can.”

Baffles me everytime.

“But when the melancholy fit shall fall Sudden from heaven like a weeping cloud, That fosters the droop-headed flowers all, And hides the green hill in an April shroud; Then glut thy sorrow on a morning rose.” 🥀Ode to Melancholy, John Keats This quote felt very apt for this Monday-est of Mondays I seem to be having today. 🖤 Fun fact for those that don’t know, I actually studied English Literature in university! The Romantic period of literature was always my favourite, so I guess it’s no surprise now that I’m all about those cottagecore vibes. 🧺🌳 If you were to go back to university now (or if you haven’t gone/didn’t go), what would you choose to study? I think I’d still go with Lit because I just love books so much 📚, but I’d maybe want to do a double major with Communications or Sociology because I love learning about people! 🙋🏼‍♀️ Photo by @erin.marie.noble #cottagecore #pastoral #romanticism #romanticliterature #academiaaesthetic #darkacademia #darkacademiaaesthetic #princesscore #reallifeprincess #royalcore #booknerdsunite #cottagecoreaesthetic #darkcottagecore #fairycore #fairycoreaesthetic #midsize #midsizestyle #midsizefashion #midsizeblogger (at Shelburne Farms) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNSZ-YXgGOu/?igshid=1l143dkiv8164

I have such a crush on romantic literature. The words wind their way around my heart and into my soul. I adore the way language makes me feel and how deeply those emotions cling to every part of me.

But this love I have recently found cannot be described using words. My precious literature is no longer sufficient or able to meet the dizzying heights I reach every day. ‘I love you’ is said again and again, yet it somehow still doesn’t convey to him what that truly means to me. Three words that mean so much and are sometimes so hard to say, are suddenly not enough for me.

James. My feelings and emotions are simmering, close to overflowing, every moment of every day. Even the spaces in between are filled with you. My world is yours. My life is yours. My heart is yours. The words elude me and there are none that seem to capture the deep connection I have to you. Know I adore every moment of us. Know our love story will be enough, even when the spoken words are not.

I may be on vacation, but the ink beast must have its offering. Day 29 is my main girl, Mary Shelley. It’s appropriately thunderstorming outside. ⛈ . . . #mabsdrawlloweenclub #inktober #inktober2018 #penandink #micron #sketchbook #sketches #darkartists #maryshelley #gothic #horror #romanticliterature #lightning #thunderstorm #author https://www.instagram.com/p/Bpie_sLhir0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1dls0ctmdkr3g

“When her mind was discomposed... a book was the opiate that lulled it to repose.” -Ann Radcliffe, The Romance of the Forest 🦊 ➡️QOTD: What are a few of your non-bookish hobbies? 🍄 🍁 It’s been a while, hasn’t it! Life has definitely picked up over the past few months and so far 2019 has been filled with ups, downs, and everything in between. I’m currently in the middle of the most hectic semester I’ve had so far and I’m constantly studying or cranking out essays and new short stories/novel projects! But since I’m on spring break this week, which means it’s my 3 year bookstagram anniversary this month, I figured I’d post just to let y’all know I’m still here and haven’t quit yet. To be honest, lately bookstagram felt like a chore and I was tired of focusing on numbers and only posting books I knew would get me more likes. BUT, that mentality is cancelled. I’ve decided that when I’m able to post I’m going to post books that bring me joy without caring about how people are going to engage with it. Bookstagram is a hobby, and I need to remember that. Thank you for being patient with me and sticking with me through all this, it means a lot to me. Here’s to 3 years, and hopefully many more 🥂 ☁️ 🍂 #theitalian #themysteriesofudolpho #theromanceoftheforest #annradcliffe #gothicliterature #romanticliterature #britishliterature #painting #book #fiction #fantasy #youngadultbooks #youngadultfiction #youngadultfantasy #bookish #bibliophile #booklover #booknerd #bookcover #bookworm #bookaddict #bookporn #bookstagrammer #bookstagram #hygge #art #writer #blogger #emmareadsforfun (at Richmond, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BupAp8fnpp9/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ur4qm7skl9dl

Including ‘Frankenstein: The Modern Prometheus’ Shelly wrote the novel whilst wild weather kept her and her husband and friends were abroad in Switzerland for Summer vacation. Also wishing all the best for anyone affected by these rains and floods. #rainydayactivities #romanticliterature #maryshelley #writinglife (at Awabakal Country) https://www.instagram.com/p/CarFU1KpPyA/?utm_medium=tumblr

You could draw me to fire, you could draw me to water, you could draw me to the gallows, you could draw me to any death, you could draw me to anything I have most avoided, you could draw me to any exposure and disgrace. This and the confusion of my thoughts, so that I am fit for nothing, is what I mean by your being the ruin of me.

- Charles Dickens (Our mutual friend)

Hoy os traigo reseña de este libro que es una colaboración con la autora, a la que agradezco el envío! • ♡ En esta historia vamos a conocer a Henar y Mateo. Henar ha perdido su trabajo y se ha enterado de que el hombre con el que estaba era un hombre casado, marido de su jefa nada menos. Por lo que decide regresar a su pueblo con su hermana. Allí conoce a Mateo, el hombre del que su hermana está encandilada. Él es un hombre a cargo de sus dos hijos desde que su mujer los abandonó, por lo que es algo desconfiado con Las mujeres. • ♡ El hombre con el que estaba Henar va a seguir luchando por que vuelva con él, pero a su vez, ella va a empezar a sentir algo por Mateo. No es un triángulo amoroso al uso, pero ya sabéis muchas que este tipo de relaciones no son mi fuerte. • ♡ Es una historia bonita, pero la cabezoneria y la forma de actuar de los protagonistas muchas veces me ha sacado de quicio. • ♡ El personaje de Mateo empezó gustándome bastante, pero llegó un momento en el que se puso demasiado terco y hermético. • ♡ La autora me ha comentado que hay segunda parte. Así que espero que en ese los personajes hayan apaciguado un poco su carácter, porque madre mia... • ♡ También he de reconocer que ha tenido escenas familiares muy bonitas 😍. • ♡ ¿Conocíais este libro? ¿Alguna más lo ha leído? • • #yoleoromántica #yoleoromantica #booksinstagram #bookstagrammer #bookstagrammerespaña #bookinstagramespaña #libros #librosromanticos #literaturaromantica #reseña #reseñalibro #leoyopino #colaboracion #somosdos #belénfranco #books #romanticbooks #romanticliterature #review #bookreview #booklover #booknerd #bookaholic #welovebooks #pickoftheday #booksinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CLSYi_TlGO0/?igshid=4ckxc69x4dzt
