Romantic, Dead Adolescence
I just finished reading the introduction to Orson Scott Card's Speaker for the Dead, the author's definitive edition.
He brought up the Romance genre. He said that the main characters of the "old school" romance are adolescents, seeking after identity and adventure but without the responsibility of adulthood. It makes sense, but I still have some more to learn about the genre. . ..
For instance, how do academics make the connection between utopia and romance?

how can academics make that connection?? I thought all of academia was based on logic, and believe me, logic has nothing to do with love
I think has been ignoring the links I've made for the term 'Romance' and explanations I've made about 'Romance' all around the 'net.
Why don't you take some time to read up on 'Scientific Romance' and 'Medieval Romance.'
You might learn something.
there is no such thing as a scientific romance!!
I can't tell if you're leading me into some kind of trap here, man, but PLEASE, go to these Webpages and read the entries:

Thank you.
oh come on! You actually trust wikipedia?!?!
For LOVE???!
