"The Massacre of the Innocents"‚ painted by Pacecco de Rosa during the 1600s‚ depicts a scene from the Bible in which we see the moment when soldiers were sent out by King Herod to kill every child in the region to end the rumors of a child prophesied to rule the kingdom. The baby whom he was looking for was none other than Jesus Christ. And upon careful observation‚ one can see that among all of the chaos occurring in this painting‚ there is one mother and child who do not seem to be frightened

In The Lais of Marie de France‚ poet Marie de France illustrates many different kinds of love. The main themes being marriage and extramarital affairs.
