Lies In Romeo And Juliet

Juliet has came to the conclusion that since Romeo is her husband, even though he killed her own cousin, that she should always have his back. Also, Juliet even threatens her Nurse, someone who she has trusted and has been with since birth. She threatened to have sores over her tongue. Juliet has had this passion, out of nowhere. She just met Romeo recently, and decides to be passionate about him because she thinks that marrying him will help the feud between the Montagues and Capulets and that Romeo is attractive, so therefore he is a good man. In fact, this isn’t true. Romeo has killed a Capulet over Juliet, Tybalt! Juliet’s passion about Romeo has driven her to do many crazy things. Lastly, Juliet feels the need to defend herself in the end. Juliet says that it is a good thing that Romeo killed Tybalt because Tybalt would have killed Romeo. She thinks it’s better to have Romeo alive than her own

Juliet’s father forces Juliet to marry Paris, and if she does not he threatens to leave her to ‘hang, beg, starve, die in the streets’. This arranged marriage with one she does not love compels Juliet to find an urgent resolution, and this resolution contributes to the deaths of Romeo and Juliet. The families’ feud contributes to the deaths of Romeo and Juliet, as they know that their relationship must remain unknown. The feud leads to delusion and deceit, and their eventual death. Ultimately, the feud between the families makes their deception necessary and inevitable; but this deception leads to their untimely deaths.

Shakespeare wrote “Two households, both alike in dignity, from ancient grudge break to new mutiny, where civil blood makes civil hands unclean. From forth the fatal loins of these two foes a pair of star-crossed lovers take their life,”(Prologue.1-6). One of the main themes in Romeo and Juliet, as described by the quote, is love as a cause of violence and distrust because family members of Romeo and Juliet are betrayed and lied to and the star crossed lovers eventually kill themselves out of love. Romeo and Juliet go behind their parents back as the meet on the balcony and get married. Juliet lies to the nurse and her parents about why she is going to Friar Lawrence. She ends up telling her parents she wants to get married to Paris even though she is thinking the opposite. All of these lies are told because Romeo and Juliet

The truth of their love is based on secrecy. Secrecy kills. It has the strength to rip families apart and end lives. To begin, the decisions that Romeo and Juliet make are often based on their love for one another. Juliet’s decision to go to the Friar to find a remedy that ensures her everlasting love with Romeo shows the length she will go to be with him. Once her request is made obvious, the Friar is unsure what to do. The child has given him two options: help her or she will help herself. Juliet’s words to Friar are as follows,

William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet focus on the two young lovers, Romeo and Juliet, who fall in love and die within a span of three days. Romeo and Juliet illustrate how the love brings them together to over power the control of their relationship. The moment that Romeo and Juliet declare their love for one another, they try to keep their love a secret since they are the children of the feuding families, the Montagues and the Capulets. Initially their families would be outraged against their relationship that Romeo and Juliet propose to hide the truth of their love. Once Romeo and Juliet reveal to the Nurse and Friar Lawrence their plans to marry, their relationship is nothing but a risk of problems. Romeo is unafraid to show his love that he teases Tybalt teasing him about falling in love with Juliet, although not explicitly. However, the deaths of Mercutio and Tybalt, occur when Romeo and Juliet take actions to protect themselves, but they are not however, protected. Juliet protects her relationship by committing a false death only for Romeo to believe it as true. As a result, the act to protect Romeo and Juliet’s relationship a secret are examples of the failed actions both Romeo and Juliet try to prevent; however, it is not ‘fate’ that control their lives and deaths.

Romeo and Juliet seek advice by the wrong person. One day after meeting each other, they seek marriage from Friar Laurence, the head of the church in Verona. Laurence agreed to marry them to bring their families

Romeo tried to break up a quarrel between Mercutio and Tybalt that was gradually becoming physical. Tybalt saw this and tried to fight him as well. However, Romeo did not wish to fight. Romeo felt a certain family-like love for Tybalt since him and Juliet were married and Tybalt was now his cousin as well. Tybalt did not know this and continued to provoke a fight anyways. Maybe, if Tybalt knew about the marriage, then the fight could have been avoided. At the same time, however, Tybalt might have been angry if he knew. The fight went on and ended with Mercutio losing his life and Romeo avenging him by killing Tybalt. The Prince of Verona then banished Romeo from the city, stopping him from seeing Juliet again. Due to the secrecy of their marriage, no one but Romeo and Juliet themselves saw this as a problem. Since Lord and Lady Capulet did not know about their daughter being married, they arranged her marriage with Paris. This then led to Friar Lawrence's second plan which involved the sleeping potion. When the potion put Juliet into a death-like sleep, only her and Friar Lawrence knew that it was a hoax and everyone thought she was dead, even Romeo. This caused him to kill himself to show his love and try to be with her in the afterlife. When Juliet woke up from her slumber, she saw a deceased Romeo and killed herself as well. This second lie and secret of Juliet faking her death to get out of marrying Paris caused the deaths of Romeo, Paris, and herself. Once both the Capulets and Montagues heard of their children's deaths and of all of their secrets, they became guilty and ended their feud. This is one of the only positive outcomes to come out of this tangled web of

Romeo and Juliet is a play about two star-crossed teenage lovers. They are from opposing families; Romeo is a Montague and Juliet is a Capulet. They meet at a party at the home of the Capulet’s and fall in love at first sight. That night Romeo comes to Juliet’s balcony and he watches her for awhile. Finally, he calls out to her, and they talk, him on the ground her in her balcony. After talking they decide to get married. Romeo rushes off to make the arrangement for their wedding. Only days after the wedding Romeo is banished from Verona for the murder of Tybalt, Juliet’s cousin, and only days after that Romeo and Juliet take their own lives. Romeo did first believing Juliet had died, however, she was only in a death-like sleep. She woke up and saw her beloved Romeo dead and stabbed herself with his dagger. Although they chose to take their own lives I believe Romeo’s friend Mercutio is most to blame for the two lovers deaths.

First, Romeo and Juliet had told the truth than their friends and family could have not died. Tybalt wanted to fight Romeo but, when the time came Romeo was related to Tybalt and he tried to convince him that he loved him and did not want to fight. This resulted in Tybalt getting angry and accidently stabbing Mercutio under Romeo’s arm. Then Romeo is so mad that he kills Tybalt. This could have been prevented if Romeo had just told Tybalt that they were married. Tybalt would have saw him as a relative and wouldn’t want to kill his cousin’s husband. Therefore, Mercutio wouldn’t have been stabbed and Romeo wouldn’t have killed

Juliet says that if Romeo was found at her house he will die (2.2.64-65). Whether the feud is taken seriously or not by the parents, Juliet believes that they should remain a secret so they can continue to see each other. They believe the feud warps the decisions of their parents, and if the two are caught talking one could be hurt, causing them to keep their love secret. Romeo and Juliet got married in secret (2.6.35-37).

Romeo then rushes to the friar to explain that he's met a girl who loves him and the friar says that isn't the greatest idea if you don't know each other well , yet romeo says it's the best idea. The friar agrees only because, he's known romeo for a very long time and wants to make him happy. When Romeo and Juliet use the nurse to speak to each other they both find out that there names are from rivaling families I,iiiii,125-126. When this comes to light they should have been more cautious of this before they marry each other the next day. Between the two they have a secret to keep from their family and friends over this ¨love¨ that spread like a wildfire. When this occurs in the matter of days, it just happens so fast and about a week into them marrying each other they kill themselves over this love they believe in so much. Romeo
