It is difficult to encapsulate in a few words what any love experience between a man and a woman entails. Literature is proof of this. Despite this difficulty, there have been famous writers who have managed to capture it with words.<\/p>\n
This new issue of In-formarse explores some of those great proposals of \u201cideal\u201d love. Homer in the Iliad presents us with tender Andromache who must say goodbye to her husband before he goes to war; Dickens in Great Expectations<\/em> narrates the story of a love that promised much and then leaves us with the taste of disillusionment. Ovid, Tolkien, and the love story in The Giver<\/em> are the themes reviewed in this issue, aiming to enrich and broaden our human view of love. There is no shortage of realism and faith. Literature and Christian faith intertwine in most of the articles, since \u201cman \u2013says Saint John Paul II in his first encyclical\u2013 cannot live without love\u201d (Redemptor Hominis<\/em>, 10).<\/p>\n 03 \u2013 Editorial \u2013\u00a0Who am I?
