| Summary | "Four Phases of Love" by Paul Heyse is a collection of short stories written in the late 19th century. The work explores different dimensions and complexities of love through various narratives, unveiling emotional intricacies that resonate with timeless themes of human relationships. At the start of the first story, "Eye-Blindness and Soul-Blindness," we are introduced to two blind siblings, Mary and Clement, who grapple with their shared blindness yet have different perceptions of what it means to gain sight. As they prepare for a surgical procedure that promises to restore their vision, Mary expresses her trepidation, fearing that sight might change the bond they have shared in darkness. Clement, on the other hand, is filled with excitement and hope at the prospect of seeing the world. Tension builds as the story unfolds, highlighting their emotional connection and the contrasting philosophies they hold, setting the stage for deeper reflections on love, dependence, and the fear of change.
