Answer to Question 1

The current emphasis on romantic love is fairly recent. It emerged out of changes that

took place in the period of industrialization at the end of the nineteenth century. In the

late nineteenth century, during the Industrial Revolution, the public sphere of work

(men's sphere) emphasized self-reliance and independence. By contrast, the private

sphere of the home (women's sphere) emphasized the giving of services, the exchange

of gifts, and love. The changing nature of the domestic sphere led to changes in the

nature of marriage and contributed to the expansion of the concept of romantic love.
