How many copies have been published and sold over the last 400+ years? How many performances have taken place over the same period? How many films have been made which are close or remote adaptations? How many songs written alluding to them? This issue of allusion is probably the clincher, because if anyone wants to allude to a pair of dedicated but tragic lovers, are they going to refer to Pyramus and Thisbe? Hero and Leander? Antony and Cleopatra? Lancelot and Guinevere? Those people in The English Patient whose names I can't even remember? No. They will allude to Romeo and Juliet.
