Comparing Tybalt In William Shakespeare's The Tragedy Of Romeo And Juliet

This play is about a boy named Romeo and girl named Juliet. Their family are mortal enemies so that means that they are always fighting with one another. At a Capulet party Romeo and Juliet meet for the first time not knowing who each other are, until later that night that they are enemies. They begin to fall in love with each other and get married after meeting for one night. Then the drama gets to their head and they kill themselves. In Romeo and Juliet Capulet’s and Montague’s, Friar Lawrence, and Balthasar are responsible for the tragic deaths of Romeo and Juliet.

Tybalt being the person that stabbed and also killed Mercutio, being the one who pushed for a fight when one wasn't needed, and just having a natural temper is what make him responsible for his own death.

In Act III of Romeo & Juliet, Prince Escalus justifiably sentences Romeo to exile in result of the murder of Tybalt. Romeo acts in self defense upon the reentering of Tybalt after the slaughtering of Mercutio took place.The reentering of Tybalt demonstrates his morbid intentions, if Tybalt’s motive did not involve harming Romeo, then there is no purpose of him returning to the location of the fight. When Romeo mentions the possibility of murder between either Tybalt or himself, Tybalt says to Romeo, “Thou, wretched boy, that didst consort him here/Shalt with him hence.” (III.i.126-127). Tybalt confirms the purpose of returning when he threatens that Romeo will soon be joining Mercutio in heaven. Banning Romeo is essential in order to prevent

However, Tybalt (Capulet) comes along and will not “talk of peace! I hate the word,” leaving Benvolio with no choice but to continue the conflict. The citizens of Verona are obviously sick of the conflict that exists between the Capulets and Montague, as they shout “Down with the Capulets! Down with the Montague!” So it is clear that the people of Verona do not like the frequent civil wars. This negativity towards conflict could also be seen as a metaphor for maintaining the peace in Shakespearean society.

The two obviously don’t have a lot in common and the result is a continuous feud, between the Capulets and Montagues. Due to the recent actions taken by the character foil there is a possibility of future fights between the two in the play. A line the prologue definitely stands out in retrospect of the past events between these two, “ Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.” (Prologue to Romeo and Juliet, 4) The prologue references bloodshed between ordinary people, and if just an encounter on the streets lead to a fight between two households then think of what future encounters could cause. Tybalt didn’t seem to understand how Benvolio was trying to help in act 1 scene 1, and his ignorance will most likely be involved the next few acts in the play and lead to quite a few complications in the plot. One Tybalt and Benvolio find out about Romeo and Juliet, their opinions are expected to clash and could be another rising action to the catastrophe of the

There were two victims that night in Verona. Where one of the two didn't want to die, but just fight it was karma that got him. All those times he started those fights just because they were Montague. They were both some of the richest folks in Verona who could afford everything, the best doctors and clothing.

Lord Capulet represents the superiority men had in society, and the capacity he had to control his wife and daughter, and no one could nor would question it. This is shown in the quote “I think she will be ruled, in all respects by me” which highlights the power he had over the women in his life. Tybalt epitomised the quintessential ‘male aggression’, the quote “turn thee, Benvolio, look upon thy death” is just one example of this. Tybalt’s willingness to engage in conflict highlights how society’s expectations of masculinity contributed to the violence and tragedy that was Romeo and Juliet. Shakespeare’s juxtaposition of Romeo and the other central male characters places an emphasis on both the depths of Romeo’s love for Juliet and the consequences of disregarding society’s standards.

Envy. Fear. Pride, affection, and lust. These are all emotions. Often times, emotions such as these will affect our actions. When that happens, situations don’t always go according to plan. Which leads to a question with an answer everyone can benefit from; what repercussions result when one emotionally responds to a tense situation? In the Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, there are several examples of this. But there is one main event that focuses more on the topic at hand than the others. Juliet’s cousin, Tybalt’s actions are mostly caused by his emotions. Even more so when Tybalt rounds up on Romeo. Tybalt tries to fight Romeo after the party that Tybalt thought was trying to crash. Tybalt has a habit of acting upon emotions. When people react

Did you know that there is an evil parent who keeps fighting a specific family and decides everything his daughter does? This character’s actions caused the deaths of two star-crossed lovers. In the play Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, the fundamental ideas of rivalry and love are revealed. Capulet tries to fight the Montagues at every encounter and forcefully tries to marry Juliet to Count Paris during this story. The author uses the literary devices of metaphor, tone, and hyperbole to illustrate Capulet’s disrespectful and short-tempered behavior.

This quote brings out the anger in Tybalt because he wants to kill him right there, he doesn’t even think. He doesn’t even care if people see or what they think of him he, just wants to kill him. This shows how Tybalt is full of violence and anger and how much he hates Montagues. Tybalt has a short temper and always appears to be mad at something, always looking for violence and something with

Shakespeare creates effective drama by introducing the speech of Juliet’s cousin, Tybalt. Tybalts speech is strong and hateful towards Romeo, as he is now aware that there is one, if not more Montague’s present. By using dialogue such as ‘ what dare that slave come hither’ and ‘uncle, this is a Montague, our foe’ Shakespeare is able to translate the hate and rivalry, possessed between Romeo and Tybalt and generally the drama and conflict between Capulet and Montague. This is very dramatically effective. Capulet’s response to Tybalt, is to say that he has heard only good things about Romeo, therefore the party must go on. More time for more drama is allowed with no interruption of the party, therefore the passionate meeting of Romeo and Juliet is allowed to take place.

Romeo and Juliet written by Shakespeare the theme of the story is the powerful nature of love and fate. Tybalt is the secondary character that affected the theme the most. Tybalt effected the theme of fate by Romeo killing him and getting Romeo banished from Verona where Juliet lived. Tybalt also affected the theme by making Juliet reconsider her love for Romeo. Tybalt affected the theme of Romeo and Juliet.

Tybal is a person of many personalites, he likes to be mean, but he has a heart. He is cousins with Romeos love, Juliet, and he completly despises Romeo, and all Montegues. He is a very emotional person, but not the good kind of soft emotional. He takes everything he hears, like any soft insult as a reason to fight.

Shakespeare presents the complex family feud between the Montagues and the Capulets as the underlying ‘antagonist’ of the story, another major reason as to why the lovers didn’t prevail. This grudge is complex as the character’s actions in siding, supporting or in trying to pacify the feud makes the feud more complex. Some of Shakespeare’s greatest use of insults lend themselves to develop the dramatic technique of characterisation among the endorsers of the feud and while doing so, builds up the foreboding mood and suspenseful atmosphere of the feud. An exchange of insults between servants Sampson and Abraham such as do you bite your thumb at us, sir? would’ve united Elizabethan audiences together despite their distinctions among class. In the first act, Tybalt only
