Debate Between Romeo And Juliet

Romeo and Juliet, written by William Shakespeare, is a tragic love story about two young lovers who are forced to be estranged as a result of their feuding families. The play is about their struggle to contravene fate and create a future together. As such, it was only a matter of time before Hollywood would try and emulate Shakespeare’s masterpiece. This had been done before in many films.

The play begins with Romeo lovesick and suicidal over another girl, Rosaline, therefore setting the stage of heartbreak and youth due to his immediate change of heart as he spots Juliet. One minute he is ready to kill himself over a Rosaline, and the next he is in love with a new girl, Juliet. While Romeo is a few years older, Juliet is only thirteen years old. Her father, Capulet, explains, “But saying o'er what I have said before. My child is yet

The way men convey their love for the first time is very similar, if not exactly the same in both literature and songs. “Michelle,” is a song performed by Sir Paul McCartney, at the White House for Barack and Michelle Obama.

In the excerpt, Romeo sees a young lady, who he does not know yet that it is Juliet, and shows instant interest upon putting his eyes on her. Considering both sources and what they say about men when they express their emotions, we can presume that when a male first has a passionate attraction to someone, that man is influenced by those emotions

They both instantly fall into what they immediately refer to as love (Romeo and Juliet, Act I S V L 141). Earlier, when asked to consider marrying Paris, Juliet refuses to consider him more than her mother would like her to (Romeo and Juliet, Act 2 S III L 97-99).

“Nothing you can make that can’t be made. No one you can save that can’t be saved. Nothing you can do but you learn how to be you in time. It’s Easy.” Can you imagine, writing a song in 11 days that would be performed in front of approximately 400 million people all over the world? Sounds a bit unrealistic doesn’t it? The Beatles were asked to write a song that they would broadcast all over the world. A song that had a massage, a massage that was clear and easy to understand. Geoff Emerick once said “I don’t know if they had prepared any ides but they left it very late to write the song. John said ‘Oh God, is it that close? I suppose we’d better write something.’ “Perhaps it was the 11 day crunch that made this song a hit, or maybe it was the massage. All many know is that “All You Need is Love” is a song that has been carried throughout history for years. Many would classify this song as a classic, much like

The big talk with all teens these days, is romeo and juliet (not really). They are all wondering the same exact question: Whose fault is it that romeo and juliet went through their horrible tragedy together. Is it the families?... Romeo?… The friar?… Well, you guessed it in the title. It is all juliet's fault that all of this ever went down. The main idea of the essay today will be how juliet messed up everything.

The song “Michelle” by the Beatles and the story of Romeo and Juliet by Shakespeare both assist the notion of the male brain when a male becomes struck with love and how they handle their feelings in those moments. The song “Michelle” supports this idea because it exhibits portraying imagery of a French man trying to express his love to a woman, but not knowing how to do it. The man then uses his verbal gestures to speak to her in the best way he can. Likewise, Romeo and Juliet supports this idea because it expresses a character named Romeo that does his best to convey his love for Juliet but being dumbfounded and incapable of finding the right words to say. Romeo happens to be so awestruck with love that he mumbles and struggles to find the right words to win Juliet’s heart.

The tale of Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare will always be revered as one of the most tragic, classic tales of young love.

It is quite unlikely that two young teenagers who just met could be so passionately affectionate towards each other within such a short time frame. Yet, the situation becomes far more likely when one takes the time to carefully define what emotions they are truly experiencing.
