How Does Romeo Mature

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,

In life, people are changing constantly. Sometimes it is for good and sometimes it is for bad. The same goes for Romeo in the play entitled Romeo and Juliet written by William Shakespeare. Romeo makes many changes throughout the play, but none bigger than his love. He starts off loving Rosaline, but soon finds more love with Juliet. Because of his change in lovers, his emotions become entirely different from the beginning of the play. He starts off as depressed and melancholy, and then suddenly finds joy and happiness in life. Romeo gains maturity as the play continues. Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy written by William Shakespeare. The plot is focused on a feud involving two royal families set in the late 1500’s. Romeo and Juliet are from the two different families and are stuck in the crossfire. Because of this feud, Romeo must adapt and make many changes throughout the play. Romeo makes many changes throughout the play that have good and bad consequences.

| This conversation has ended with Tybalt’s retreat but an ominous threat to Romeo. It is clear that things will turn sour for him where Tybalt is concerned and his murderous intent remains just inside the boundaries of the festive atmosphere.

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

- Tybalt gets in a fight with Romeo and gets killed. He is Juliet's cousin. He accidently kills Mercutio in a street fight which is why Romeo stabs and kills Tybalt because Mercutio and Romeo are best friends.

His impulsive behavior is displayed when he seeks vengeance that built after his friend was killed by his new cousin, Tybalt. In the story Romeo states, “Either thou or I, or both, must go with him”(3.1.191). In this statement to Tybalt, Romeo is implying that he intends to ensure that Tybalt is slain even if it means that he himself must perish. He succeeds in defeating Tybalt in a one on one confrontation. Once Tybalt is dead, the young lover is banished, and a domino effect ensues on the rest of the characters. His banishment leads to the end of both Juliet and his mother’s life as a result of being separated from his mother and a plot concocted between Juliet and the Friar. In addition, Romeo hastefully goes from loving one beauty to loving another. Despite the two being complete strangers they both wish to marry each other. When he informs Friar Lawrence of his change in heart the Friar states, “These violent delights have violent ends”(2.6.9). Friar Lawrence's says this to warn Romeo of the consequences of his wish to conduct the marriage so quickly. To prevent a cease in the relationship due to no real bond between the two ‘lovers’, the Friar tries to use language to prevent him from being rushed into love. This impulsive behavior Romeo indulged caused things to escalate quickly leading to the demise of himself and Juliet’s star-crossed love for each

Juliet starts thinking for herself and goes against her parents by marrying Romeo, a Montague, showing that since she is mature enough to marry, she is also mature enough to make her own decisions. In 2.6, Friar Laurence is marrying Romeo and Juliet together. Friar Laurence states, “You shall not stay alone/ Till holy church incorporate two in one” (42). Knowing the family rivalry against Capulets and Montagues, Juliet Capulet rebels against her innocence and family by marrying Romeo Montague. Juliet follows through with this decision, going against her parents and thinking for herself once again. She is in love with Romeo and goes against her parents by following through to marry Romeo at the end of 2.6. Not to mention that Juliet is the character

Before being introduced to the contents of the play, Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, understanding of the argument Shakespeare was attempting to convey, is that adolescents are impulsive and cannot make decisions themselves; and if they did, they would be subject to consequences that could ultimately cost them their lives. However, after reading Juliet’s parts, I was able to see that Shakespeare wasn’t arguing such at all. Instead I saw that Shakespeare was asking a question of who is mature, as opposed to stating that children are immature. So, as a reader, my original perspective of maturity between youth and adults within the play was altered because of Juliet’s usage of measurements and quantitative

Romeo and Juliet’s relationship is secretive throughout the story and it takes a turn for the worse when Tybalt and his friends confronts Benvolio romeo’s cousin and Mercutio Romeo’s friend whom are both Montagues. They get into an argument when Romeo joins his friends. Tybalt then tries to fight Romeo but Romeo does not want to because he is now his relative although Tybalt does not know this. This result in a sword duel between Mercutio and Tybalt resulting in the death of Mercutio. Romeo is enraged by this and kills Tybalt. Prince Escalus the prince of Verona is informed of this by Benvolio who tries to communicate it was Tybalt’s fault but Lady Capulet who is Tybalt’s aunt says he is lying to protect the Montagues. Just like that Romeo is banished from Verona which is where Juliet lives and if he is spotted their he will be killed. Romeo is devastated by the news and wants to kill himself but Friar Lawrence advises him to go live in Montua until things settle down and that he and Juliet will meet in secret. Another problem arises with Juliet. A wedding is planned for her and Paris.“Take thou Vial, being then in bed, and this distilled liquid drink thou off”(4.1.93-94). Friar Lawrence comes up with a plan for Juliet to drink a potion that puts her to sleep for a few days and makes the impression that she is dead. She will be put in a tomb and when she wakes up Romeo will get her and they

At first, she feels she has been deceived by Romeo and that his beautiful exterior really houses a devilish soul. But then she decides that she should not speak dishonorably of Romeo, just because he is her husband. She then concludes that Romeo must have killed Tybalt out of self-defense and decides to continue loving and trusting Romeo.

In Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, the theme disobedience to recognized authority inevitably brings retribution is illustrated by two young lovers (Romeo and Juliet). Romeo is part of the Montague family, and is Juliet's husband. Juliet is Romeo's wife and she is part of the Capulet family, who are the Montagues' enemies. Tybalt is Juliet's cousin, who likes to fight. Mercutio is Romeo's friend and Benvolio is Romeo's cousin.

Tybalt wants to fight Romeo because he crashed the party where he met Juliet. Because Tybalt is known for his skilled sword fighting, Mercurio doesn’t believe Romeo will will in this fight so he fights for him. In the beginning is was just a little silly fight but when Romeo enters the scene things get interesting. Romeo decides to try and stop this fight because he thinks he can resolve it; with romeo getting in the middle of the fight with swords in the air, Tybalt’s sword happened to stab Mercutio. This resulted in Mercutio's death, and tempered romeo quite quickly. Romeo chases after Tybalt and fights him. With Romeo’s rage, the fight ends up with Tybalt dead. After the two deaths were revealed, Romeo was to blame for the killings and was banned from his home (Verona). Romeo was able to marry Juliet but would be separated from her forever. Before he must leave Juliet sneaks him into her room so they could sleep together to complete their marriage. After the night, romeo leaves at dawn. A professor named Friar Lawrence was the man who secretly married them, and was soon asked by Juliet to make a potion to make her fall asleep for a period of time so she appears dead. Once she is Buried outside the town she plans to leave home with Romeo. Romeo hears about this and thinks that she is

Once love is found, any obstacle presented will neither diminish nor terminate that love, even when tragedy strikes with the loss of a loved one. Tybalt, the cousin of Juliet is one of the Capulet’s that despises the Montague’s and he will do anything in his power to kill them all, and once he confronted Romeo, he met his fate and died by Romeo’s sword. The Prince arrived to the scene and said “Romeo slew him, he slew Mercutio” (III.i.181), him referring to Tybalt, and once realized, he banished Romeo out of the city. Once Juliet discovered the truth about Tybalt’s death and Romeo’s banishment she said in grief “Romeo is banished- to speak that word is father, mother, Tybalt, Romeo, Juliet, all slain, all dead- Romeo is banished” (III.ii.122-124). Her heartache for Romeo’s banishment more than her cousin Tybalt’s death shows that he is her life, her world, and her breath, and without him she would be nothing and life as she knows is would end, even through tragedy and anguish.

Juliet matures from being obedient and relying on everyone else's opinion to a grown woman who will not listen to her father's wishes if they will make her sin. Also if her father's wishes will make her be disloyal to her husband and also to Paris because she doesn’t love him. She doesn’t believe in marrying for money or for an arranged marriage. Romeo matures from thinking he is in love to realizing what love is and making choices that will benefit them and that will be faithful to his wife's wishes like the choice of keeping their marriage a

Romeo is faced with similar oppositions as Juliet. His family, being sworn enemies to the Capulets, are kept in the dark about his romance with Juliet. Also, when the Capulets begin to perceive of the close relationship between Romeo and Juliet, it makes him a greater target to Capulet men such as Tybalt. There is no doubt as to Romeo’s faithfulness towards Juliet and his desire to do all that is needed in order to have her love, but because of his lack of experience in life, Romeo is not at all faultless. Perhaps the most notable act that sabotaged his relationship with Juliet was his slaying of Tybalt. However honorable and necessary it may have seemed to him at the time, Romeo’s rashness once again rears its ugly head after Mercutio foolishly brings about his own demise. Of course, Romeo immediately regrets his impetuous actions after the grave mistake had already been done as he does many times throughout the story.
