Jealousy in Literature

The theme of jealousy (and its aftermath) is universal, raising such questions as, "What is Jealousy?" and "How does it differ from envy?" Specialists have attempted to answer these questions: psychologists, sociologists, and biologists seek the factors that create this emotion; Artists explore the theme in photographs, paintings, movies, songs, plays, poems, and books; theologians offer religious views based on the scriptures of their respective faiths.
