Romeo And Juliet Act 3 Scene 2 Essay

As Juliet awaits for Romeo to arrive, the Nurse rushes into her room and tells her the awful news about her cousin’s death. “This is that banished haughty Montague. That murder'd my love’s cousin-- with which grief...Condemned villain, I do apprehend thee. Obey, and go with me; for thou must die (5.3.49-57)”. With these harsh works, Juliet expresses her sadness for the death of Tybalt, but in reality she is heartbroken by Romeo’s banishment from the town of Verona.

When Juliet finds out that Tybalt has been killed and Romeo is in exile, for killing Tybalt, Juliet feels both passionate about Romeo and disappointed in both Romeo and herself, which reveal her inner struggle. In Act 3, Juliet’s Nurse comes back with this news that Tybalt is dead and that Romeo is such an awful person for killing him. Juliet fights back at the Nurse, and herself, for speaking bad about Romeo. She claims, ““Shall I speak ill of him that is my husband? Ah, poor my lord, what tongue shall smooth thy name, When I, thy three hours' wife, have mangled it? But wherefore, villain, didst thou kill my cousin? That villain cousin would have killed my husband.” (3.2.99-101). This shows that Juliet is passionate about Romeo, because first of all, she says that she was wrong to say bad things about her husband.

Supporting the Friar’s dismal assessment of Romeo is the Nurse. I will direct her to be the funny character in the scene, her face underlining how ridiculous Romeo appears, bawling like a woman on the floor. She even looks appalled as she asks Rome to stand up and be a man, instead of blubbering on the floor. Still, as the Nurse describes Juliet's misery, she would exude deep concern like a mother would. Her face depicts that if there is anyone who loves Juliet as much as Romeo, it is her for she is similar to a mother who cares only for her child's happiness and nothing

Due to the nurse being so unclear, Juliet thinks that both Romeo and Tybalt both have died. Once things clear up, Juliet figures out that Romeo has killed Tybalt, and her first reaction to this is anger toward Romeo. After things cool down, she feels bad that she has said this, and she takes her words back. Once Juliet learns about the punishment Romeo gets she feels the worst she has ever felt. Romeo was given the sentence of exile, which in the time period meant no connection to people, whatsoever. Due to this Juliet knows that she might never ever see the love of her life, at all. To Juliet this meant that there would be no more Romeo, “Juliet feels that Romeo is no longer her lover, and she can’t have him again” (Moffat 139). She started crying a lot after this, so much that her parents had to come to her room and see what was going on. When Lady Capulet inquired as to why Juliet was crying, Juliet right away said that she was crying about the horrible death of Tybalt. Lady Capulet responds to this by saying, “Well, girl thou weep’st not so much for his death, as that the villain lives which slaughtered him” (Romeo and Juliet 3.5.65-66). Juliet had just tricked her mother into thinking that she wasn't crying for Romeo, but rather Tybalt. The dramatic irony in this case is that the reader knows that Juliet is lying to her mother, but Lady Capulet actually believes this, and goes along with it.

In William Shakespeare’s play Romeo and Juliet, about two love struck teenagers whom aren’t able to be together due to their families feud/ social situation. There are two key themes that of love and hate. Before Romeo and Juliet meet, the audience is only aware that he is a Montague and that she is a Capulet. This adds to the scene being so dramatically effective as do other happenings throughout the length of the scene. These include the speech of Capulet and the happy and joyous mood of the party, The romantic speech of Romeo, The hatred and harshness of Tybalt’s speech, a direct contrast with that of Romeo’s and the drama when the two lovers, Romeo and Juliet first meet.

The song “Michelle” and Romeo and Juliet act 1 scene 5 lines 44-53 are pieces in which the male characters express their emotions to a female character in a passionate way which shows how males express their romantic feelings. “Michelle” is a song that is performed by Paul McCartney at the white house to Michelle Obama, the first lady at the time.

Romeo and Juliet act 1 scene 5 lines 44-53 is a play written by William Shakespeare in 1597.

Act 2 scene 2 is where Romeo and Juliet meet again when Romeo tries to sneak into the Capulet’s household by entering through the Capulet Gardens. Here he meets Juliet on the balcony and now they both have a newfound passion for each other. In the 1996 version, the balcony scene was adapted into a pool scene. Since there was no balcony in the way, Romeo and Juliet could kiss more often than otherwise would have been possible. Since modern audiences are almost always interested in sex, the 1996 version uses this to keep the audience’s attention. In the 2013 version, the approach was more traditional, with a balcony and no pool. While Juliet was on the balcony, she rests her hand upon her cheek and Romeo comments about Juliet’s beauty, to himself, while the frame is a tight shot in Juliet’s face. The effect here was so literal,

Romeo is saying he has a premonition that he will be controlled by fate and eventually lead to a

Shakespeare uses the Capulet’s friends and family to convey that sudden, young love is a possible cause of unfavorable outcomes. After Tybalt slays Mercutio, he returns to Romeo, where he is so enraged about his friends death that he kills Tybalt himself. Being part of the Capulet family, everyone is mourning over their beloved cousins death. Lady Capulet is especially upset, as she whines, “‘O, the blood is spilled / Of my dear kinsman! Prince, as thou art true, / For blood of ours, shed blood of Montague’” (Shakespeare 3.1.115-117). She says that the “blood is spilled”, and that because of that, the “Montagues” need to “shed blood” too. Tybalt got slain because he initially found Romeo at a Capulet party, due to Juliet being an attendant there also. This infuriated Tybalt, leading to him to challenge Romeo to a duel, the very duel that cost Tybalt his life. Tybalt was a loved cousin of the Capulet family, therefore causing them much sorrow. This sorrow and negativity is caused by Romeo and Juliet's relationship, as Tybalt wouldn't of been dead, and his family wouldn't of been in grief if it weren't for Romeo and Juliet being “star crossed” lovers. Later on, after the tragic death of Tybalt and Mercutio, Lord capulet sets up Juliet to marry Paris. But, to his surprise, Juliet declines his offer due to her love for Romeo. Lord Capulet becomes incensed and screams, “‘And you be not, hang, beg, starve, die in the streets, / For by my soul, I'll never acknowledge thee, / Nor what is mine shall never do thee good”’ (Shakespeare 3.5.204-206). He says that he wishes for her to “die in the streets” and that he will “never acknowledge” her. Lord Capulet's words greatly affect Juliet, but even more himself. He is distraught he has to be so cruel to her, but meanwhile his veins are flooded with fury as she refused to take part in being married to Paris, therefore she is cursed to “die in the streets”. If Romeo were to never steal her love, Juliet may of been married to Paris, and everyone could have continued their lives as accustomed. Nonetheless, the two young
