In the Renaissance the church didn´t rule everything anymore, there was a lot more freedom, which lead to love and romanticism to become the most popular themes of literary works during this era.
It is not always a happy ending love story where everyone´s happy, there are a lot of melancholic, sad, painful and tragic literary love works.

During that period, the church ruled, and God was the center of everything. Therefore, almost all literary works contained some worshipping to the church and Christianity in general, but mainly towards The Divine Trinity.
2.- Oral transmission
Since the vast majority of the population in that era was illiterate, literature had to be spread around by mouth, so everyone understands it and enjoy it. But reading a big text to someone on the street can be quite boring, that´s the reason they wrote them in...
3.- Verse
Most if not all of the medieval texts were written in prose and hence, designed to be sung. This was for it being more enjoyable and for making it easier to recite.
4.- Anonymous Authors
As mentioned before, during this era, theocentrism ruled, therefore anyone who dared to write anything that went against Christian values would get severe punishments, probably death or torture. Hence why many literary works that did just that, were published from anonymity.]]> 2022-09-15 23:41:53 UTC https://padlet.com/al02993500/fyv3r2cwsaas8onz/wish/2299088537 al02993500 https://padlet.com/al02993500/fyv3r2cwsaas8onz/wish/2300595930 1.- Nationalism
