About the Book The romance novel, which is sometimes termed the romantic novel, places its primary focus on the development of a romantic relationship and love between two people. The sub-genres of the romance novel include: fantasy, historical romance, paranormal fiction, and science fiction. Romance novels existed in ancient Greece, and were also to be found in the literary fiction of the 18th and 19th centuries in the works of such authors as Samuel Richardson and Jane Austen.Also in this Book In historical fiction the plot is set in the past, and pays attention to the manners, social conditions and other details of the period portrayed. Some authors choose to include famous historical figures in their fictional plots, so that audiences can imagine how those individuals might have responded to the plots and environments established by the author. The Western literary component of this genre is founded in the early 19th century works of such authors as Sir Walter Scott, Honoré de Balzac, James Fenimore Cooper, and Leo Tolstoy.And in this Book Ancient Greek drama flourished from 700 BC, particularly in Athens, where it was incorporated in a festival called the Dionysia, honouring the god Dionysus. There emerged the tragedy (late 500 BC), the comedy (490 BC), and the satyr play. Theater also came to occupy an important component of Roman society, as it became the primary means through which political emotions could be expressed during the republican and imperial periods. Works by Plautus, Terence, and Seneca the Younger survive to this day. Medieval drama refers to the period between the fall of the Western Roman Empire (5th century A.D.) and the Renaissance beginning in the 15th century A.D., and includes genres such as liturgical drama, mystery plays, morality plays, farces and masques.About us Leopold Classic Library has the goal of making available to readers the classic books that have been out of print for decades.
