Heloise (1101-1164): Letter to Abelard
(http://www.fordham.edu/halsall/source/heloise1.html)

"The letters of Abelard and Heloise are, now, among the best known documents of early romantic love. From the thirteenth century on, there are references to the couple by multiple authors. With their inclusion by Jean de Meun in his Roman de la Rose (1280), their immortality as symbols was ensured."
