The words “romance” and
“romantic” are words that have
definitions that are seldom fully
understood.
In contemporary American English,
the word “romance” is almost always
used in connection with the word
“love.” In this most common use of the
word, “romance” is used to refer to a
love affair.
But that is only one definition of
the word – and not the original one.
In fact, that usage of the word
“romance” is listed as the
7th
definition in many dictionaries.
Here are the other definitions of the
word, “romance,” which are less
commonly used today.
Romance:
1.A novel or other prose story
depicting heroic or marvelous deeds,
pageantry, romantic exploits, etc.,
usually in a historical or imaginary
setting;
(The French word for “novel”
is “roman.”)
Romance:
2. the colorful world or conditions
depicted in such tales;
Romance:
3. a Medieval narrative, originally
one in verse and in some Romance
language, treating a heroic,
fantastic, or supernatural series of
events, often in the form of
an allegory.
Romance:
4. a baseless, made-up story, usually
full of exaggeration or fanciful
invention;
Romance:
5. a romantic spirit, sentiment,
emotion, or desire;
Romance:
6. a romantic character or quality;
Romance:
7. a romantic affair or experience;
a love affair;
Romance:
8. a group of Indo-European languages
descended since 800 A.D. from Latin,
including French, Spanish, Italian,
Portuguese, Romanian, Provençal
and Catalan.
Romance:
9. to invent or relate romances;
to indulge in fanciful or extravagant
stories or daydreams.
In the context or definition we are
using in this course, the word
“Romantic” is used in connection with
the word “Romanticism,” a movement
in art, literature, music and intellectual
thought that originated in the second
half of the 18th century in Europe and
spread to the Americas and other
places around the world.
So the word “Romantic”
as applied to art, literature
and music history has little
or nothing to do with
the usual contemporary
usage of the word.
The music you have been listening to
is the song “Isn’t It Romantic?”
It was written in 1932 by the
American composer and lyricist team
Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart.
It was sung in this performance
by the very famous jazz vocalist
Ella Fitzgerald (1917 – 1996).

  • 5. The words “romance” and “romantic” are words that have definitions that are seldom fully understood.
  • 6. In contemporary American English, the word “romance” is almost always used in connection with the word “love.” In this most common use of the word, “romance” is used to refer to a love affair. But that is only one definition of the word – and not the original one.
  • 7. In fact, that usage of the word “romance” is listed as the 7th definition in many dictionaries. Here are the other definitions of the word, “romance,” which are less commonly used today.
  • 8. Romance: 1.A novel or other prose story depicting heroic or marvelous deeds, pageantry, romantic exploits, etc., usually in a historical or imaginary setting; (The French word for “novel” is “roman.”)
  • 9. Romance: 2. the colorful world or conditions depicted in such tales;
  • 10. Romance: 3. a Medieval narrative, originally one in verse and in some Romance language, treating a heroic, fantastic, or supernatural series of events, often in the form of an allegory.
  • 11. Romance: 4. a baseless, made-up story, usually full of exaggeration or fanciful invention;
  • 12. Romance: 5. a romantic spirit, sentiment, emotion, or desire;
  • 13. Romance: 6. a romantic character or quality;
  • 14. Romance: 7. a romantic affair or experience; a love affair;
  • 15. Romance: 8. a group of Indo-European languages descended since 800 A.D. from Latin, including French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Romanian, Provençal and Catalan.
  • 16. Romance: 9. to invent or relate romances; to indulge in fanciful or extravagant stories or daydreams.
  • 17. In the context or definition we are using in this course, the word “Romantic” is used in connection with the word “Romanticism,” a movement in art, literature, music and intellectual thought that originated in the second half of the 18th century in Europe and spread to the Americas and other places around the world.
  • 18. So the word “Romantic” as applied to art, literature and music history has little or nothing to do with the usual contemporary usage of the word.
  • 19. The music you have been listening to is the song “Isn’t It Romantic?” It was written in 1932 by the American composer and lyricist team Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart. It was sung in this performance by the very famous jazz vocalist Ella Fitzgerald (1917 – 1996).
