Fight Song Analyse

First, Romeo’s kind and calm personalities act as an advantage for many of the possible problems he could have had, such as Capulet hatred towards him and his increase in violence. After Romeo was depressed because he liked Rosaline and she didn’t like him back, his cousin Benvolio helped Romeo sneak into a Capulet party so he could get over Rosaline and pick another woman that he might want. As Romeo was describing how Juliet looked to his cousin, Tybalt, Capulet’s nephew, figured out that Romeo was at the party by his voice. He then confronted Capulet and asked him if he could kill him, but surprisingly Capulet lets him stay at the party and calls Romeo a gentleman and a good man (Shakespeare Act 1 Scene 1 Line 64). Capulet could have captured him or even killed him, but he did not. Capulet stated that Romeo is a well-governed youth and that Romeo is a good man, which shows that Romeo isn’t a person who would cause a commotion and that he causes no threat to the Capulet family. Later on, as Mercutio, the prince's kinsman, is arguing and fighting with Tybalt about him being one of his villain Romeo’s friends, Romeo comes in and says, “Tybalt, the reason I have to love thee doth much excuse the appertaining rage to such greeting. Villain am I none.Therefore farewell. I see thou knowest me not” (Shakespeare Act 3 Scene 1 Line 58). As Tybalt wants to fight Romeo and bring in violence,

The song Bad Blood would fit in Act 3 scene 1. The beginning of the scene has Romeo adamantly tell Tybalt that he refuses to fight, and instead says, “But love thee better than thou canst devise/ Till thou shalt know the reason of my love./ And so, good Capulet, which name I tender/ As dearly as mine own, be satisfied” (lines 70-73). This quote shows that Romeo loves Tybalt like his own family, because he is, though Tybalt does not know this. He will not fight Tybalt because he is Juliet’s cousin. Mercutio would not allow Tybalt to disrespect Romeo, and so they both fought. Although Romeo tried to break up the fight, Mercutio was stabbed and killed by Tybalt. As soon as Romeo realized that Tybalt killed his best friend, he forgets all about his decision to love Tybalt, and gets his revenge for the death of Mercutio.

Rage Against the Machine’s single "Testify", the first song from their 1999 album 'The Battle of Los Angeles", is a commentary on the American public’s blindness or numbness to global issues such as war, politics, capitalism, wealth, and power through the filtering of information by the mass news media. As it relates to Sociology, “Testify” deals mainly with Marxist Conflict Theory, and also incorporates many of the topics we have learned about in class throughout the semester.

The scene now takes another turn as Romeo puts aside all thought of peace, and becomes warlike. Benvolio tells him that Mercutio is dead, and Romeo decides on revenge in spite of his marriage to Juliet. “This day's black fate on more days doth depend; This but begins the woe, others must end” The audience is put on more suspense with this foreboding of more strife and death. Tybalt returns, perhaps to continue his quarrel with Romeo but strangely this time, alone and Romeo resolves on violence. “Away to heaven, respective lenity, And fire-eyed fury be my conduct now!” With the passion of this language and the dramatic tension once again onstage between Romeo and Tybalt, the scene approaches its climax. Tybalt declares that he will send Romeo’s soul after Mercutio’s. “Thou, wretched boy, that didst consort him here, Shalt with him hence.” The audience understand that either Tybalt or Romeo must die. Now we have the second sword fight in this scene and this is

Romeo and Juliet act three scene one happens on a street in Verona during a scorching hot day. When Benvolio and Mercutio spot the Capulets, Mercutio is provocative and wants to start a quarrel with Tybalt because Tybalt insulted Romeo. Tybalt and Mercutio draw their swords and start the brawl. To try and stop the brawl, Romeo steps between them, but it’s too late, Tybalt impales Mercutio under Romeo's arm and Mercutio dies. To get vengeance over Mercutio's death, Romeo attacks Tybalt and kills him. The rendition of Romeo and Juliet I’m going to discuss first is The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, and second is the 1968 film by Franco Zeffirelli.

“Just to cure it cause I can't ignore it if it's love” because Romeo is unable to stop loving Juliet whom is his whole families enemy. He loves Juliet and he can not ignore the love he feels for her. Also, the first lyric I mentioned is in a way answered by the ending of Romeo and Juliet because his cure is suicide of him and Juliet both.

The Harlem Hellfighters is recognized as a graphic novel that author, Max Brooks use to balance historical accuracy with vivid storytelling to publicize the story of those who served with the 369th, in the War to End All Wars. As Brooks stated in the novel before the story started, the story was a fictionalized account of the 369th Infantry Regiment in World War I. However, it “brings to life a long forgotten piece of American history.” - Spike Lee

They have made worms meat of me,” (3.1, 68-69). This quote exemplifies that although Mercutio is neither a Montague nor a Capulet he still dies in a battle fought between the families. This incident heightens Romeo’s fatal flaw, as his reckless act of heroism turned out to be a burden as it caused the death of Mercutio. Moreover, Mercutio’s plague towards the families also foreshadows further tragedy, as Romeo then gets banished from the Verona, along with additional events which later on result to his death. Last, even after his death, Mercutio acts as a foil character to Romeo by causing a shift in Romeo’s gentle character. For example, after Tybalt slays Mercutio, Romeo avenges his friend by killing Tybalt. This act shows his alteration in character, as he was never seen as a ferocious character in any previous scenes. This is evident in the play when Romeo says, “Away to Heaven, respective lenity, and fire-eyed fury be my conduct now,” (3.1, 125-126). This quote exemplifies Romeo’s new perception, as he claims he is finished with sympathy and gentleness. This change in Romeo’s personality is significant because not only is he going to attack Tybalt, but also he is going to kill him, which then entitles him a murderer. This is significant because it further leads to his banishment, which in all leads to his death. The transition in the persona of Romeo is highlighted by the character Mercutio, which leads to the

Plenty of people go through critical moments of their lives that may change their country. Melba Pattillo Beals from “Warriors Don’t Cry”, Jackie Robinson from “I Never Had It Made”, and Feng Ru from “The Father of Chinese Aviation” faced these critical moments which impacted their country.

I chose Dog Days Are Over by Florence and the Machine for act one, scene three. In the song it talks about being happy and that the bad days are over. Romeo in act three, scene three meets Juliet and he’s now really happy. “Leave all your love and your longing behind” Romeo left his longing and love for Rosaline behind and became happy with Juliet. “Happiness hit her like a train on a track” this describes how suddenly Romeo fell in love with Juliet.

To define a film by a certain genre, there are several elements and signatures that a film will display in order to signify its place amongst the genre. A film from the gangster genre is characterized by violence and lawlessness of american capitalism and The American Dream. The short lived classical era of the gangster genre in Hollywood is also greatly influenced by the production code which manifested the iconic moral narrative of the gangster genre. William A. Wellman’s 1931 film The Public Enemy can be considered a film of the gangster genre when one examines the conflict with the American dream, the rise and fall of the protagonist Tom Powers, as well as the visual storytelling employed to support the narrative.

The song fight song goes so well with the tragic story of Romeo and Juliet. This song goes best with Act 3 Scene 1 where Benvolio and Mercutio are out on a stroll along the hot weather. Benvolio gives Mercutio a warning since they might run into the Capulet’s and stir up a fight. Benvolio was right Tybalt shows up and kills Mercutio. Now Romeo is no longer polite to his now cousin
