Love In 20th Century Essay, Research Paper

Love in 20th century is entirely different from when Marie De France lived. In

her time, she wrote a sweet story of two women who love the same man, Eliduc. He

leaves his wife, Guildeluec to go fight in another country even though she is

devastated by his decision. During his excursion he ends up with a younger woman

named Guilliadun. The two fall madly in love. Ultimately, Guildeluec detects the

affair and behaves with not a shread of jealousy or desire for revenge. The way

she tells the story is surprisingly peaceful considering Eliduc lies to both

women. However, my version of Eliduc, is written in 2000 mode. The society has

metamorphosed into a chaotic blend of moral dysfunction. Many are unwilling to

mend broken relationships. Instead, they choose to lie, cheat and deceive those

who have been faithful and true to them. The repercussions of these betrayals

are far more nauseating than Guildeluec.s reaction to Eliduc.s affair.

Beware, if you loved Marie.s version this might be too intense for some

readers. First, the names of the characters are a bit more modern than the

monograms Marie used. Now, Eliduc is called Eli, Guildeluec is Gail and

Guilliadun is Jill. Here is how the story goes in 2000. Eli and Gail were

together all through high school. They eventually got married because their love

had grown into a bond of true friendship and love. The two-shared happiness but

Eli would focus the majority of his time on his career. Gail accepted Eli.s

ambition and never really gave him trouble about it. She had enough to do

between work and home. Besides, Eli was a good policeman. He always took pride

in his work and the chief always favored him. He treated him special. One day

Eli came home from work exasperated because some of the other guys on the force

were jealous of Eli. He told Gail "they told the chief I sell and use

drugs!" "I can.t believe this, now the chief wants me gone."

Gail said, "oh sweetheart, we can work this out. Things will be fine. We

have enough money with my salary at the hospital to last us until the chief

comes around. I could even ask some of the other nurses if I can pick up another

shift" Eli answered, "I am going away for a while. I got a job offer

in the South. Gail shrieks, "what do you mean. You know I can.t leave

this hospital because of my contract. You.re just going to take off on

me." He says, "I love my work and if that bastard does not appreciate

my services; I.m going elsewhere. I.m sorry because I know this will be hard

on us but I promise I will be true to you, Gail. I love you." "I guess

there is nothing I can say to change your mind", she says. "I.ll be

here when you.re ready to come home. I love you too." Gail sobbed as she

walked away, not because Eli was abandoning her but the feeling in her stomach

felt inexplicable. For some reason she sensed a disastrous situation coming.

Gail yearned for the ache to go away, but it lingered for weeks. Eli arrived in

the South and the new chief had not recalled talking to him about the job.

Aggravated, Eli told him "I will go to another city and fight their drug

war if you don.t want me." The chief welcomed Eli because the city had an

immense drug problem. Suddenly, the alarm sounded in the station! There was an

emergency; a riot had broken out in a dangerous section of the city. There was a

shortage of officers on duty. Eli jumped in a cruiser and sped off to find the

violators. At the scene, blood was everywhere. People were screaming and crying.

The protestors were spewing vulgarities at the policemen. Eli witnessed two

officers go down, and many of the other cops hesitated to break up the chaos.

Eli took action and planned a route to raid the rioters. It worked. Eli attacked

the leader; scrambled, fought, and clubbed the drug dealer until he was under

Eli.s control. Since Eli apprehended one of the biggest drug dealers in the

city, everyone on the force praised him. Actually, the chief was so happy he

wanted to celebrate that night by having a party. There were numerous people at

the party. Eli met what felt like a million people, but only one face stuck out

in his mind. Her name was Jill and she was the chief.s daughter. The chief was

powerfully strict with Jill. That was his only baby girl, so naturally he was

protective. Despite the chief.s "keep safe attitude", Eli couldn.t

stop thinking about her. Subsequently, Eli called Gail because he felt guilty

about his straying thoughts. When he heard Gail.s voice on the answering

machine he did not feel anything, no longing, sorrow.nothing. He was kind of

relieved because he did not want to hear how downhearted she was. Worried, he

started to think of the promise made to Gail. Soon afterward, he crawled into
