Main aspects of the Valentine's Day

Olrl. (2016) Say "The story of Valentine's Day begins in the third century with an oppressive Roman emperor and a humble Christian Martyr.   The emperor was Claudius II.   The Christian was Valentinus.
Claudius had ordered all Romans to worship twelve gods, and had made it a crime punishable by death to associate with Christians.   But Valentinus was dedicated to the ideals of Christ; not even the threat of death could keep him from practicing his beliefs.   He was arrested and imprisoned.
During the last weeks of Valentinus life a remarkable thing happened.   Seeing that he was a man of learning, the jailer asked whether his daughter, Julia, might be brought to Valentinus for lessons.   She had been blind since birth.   Julia was a pretty young girl with a quick mind.   Valentinus read stories of Rome's history to her.   He described the world of nature to her.   He taught her arithmetic and told her about God.  She saw the world through his eyes, trusted his wisdom, and found comfort in his quiet strength."

As you can see in the paragraph, it mention that the origin of the Valentine's day is in Rome, so the analysis of the origin of this celebration in the year is important to notice in the society, the analysis of the meaning of the acts is important. For this reason to have clear the topic of this celebration that represent the love in the world and the feelings between lovers. This celebration could be different in any part of the world.
