The idea that humans can love each other appears very normal
and familiar in the age and time we live in, although it was not before the
emergence of the love strand which is being dealt with in this paper.
Claimed to have different possible origins, the tradition of Courtly Love
emerged as a reaction to the prevalent religious and feudal practices of the
time. The first of these made love too restricted and idealistic, while the
latter reduced it to a petty bargain. Coupled with this was the strand of
Classical Philosophy on the subject that supported the views of the religious
elite and made it easier for them to strengthen and enforce their views. In
this paper a brief introduction of this reactionary movement that introduced
democratic norms in the sphere of love will be discussed. Effort has been
made to briefly trace its whereabouts along with its treatment by important
scholars of the field particularly with the viewpoints of Plato and Aristotle.
