Title: The idea of love
Description: Focuses primarily on those works of classical and modern philosophy, psychology and theology that have dealt with man -- with human love. Exploring the writing of authors as diverse as Aristotle, Dante, Sigmund Freud, Descartes and David Hume, the author attempts in each case to isolate the basic notion or notions that are common to all the forms of interpersonal love: the elements he implies must be present in love, and those he suggests may, in addition, be present to distinguish one type of love from another.
