Laying there on the smooth, stone floor in a dark cellar are the two dearest lovers of this very honorable city. Their dark-red, congenial blood dripping from his mouth and her stomach created a stream, a stream flowing through the tiny fissures in the old stone making a path all the way to the eminent coffin where she had once lain. This incident well describes the piece of William Shakespeare’s most prominent tragedy where the two, star-crossed lovers take their lives for each other: Romeo and Juliet.

Quote JULIET 
O fortune, fortune! all men call thee fickle:
If thou art fickle, what dost thou with him.
That is renown'd for faith? Be fickle, fortune;
For then, I hope, thou wilt not keep him long,
But send him back.
(3.5.9)

The Montague and Capulet feud is one between the two families that starts off in the play as a rather petty one but what happens is this “ancient grudge break to new mutiny” which causes the ordeal to increase significantly in seriousness. The feud between Romeo and Juliet’s families becomes so hate driven that “the continuance of their parents’ rage, Which but their children’s death, naught could remove” And this includes the other lives lost such as Tybalt and Mercutio’s which just fires up the families even more. Romeo and Juliet both commit suicide and this is in fact what finally convinces both families to bury the hatchet and quell the feud.

In addition, Lord Capulet failed to stop Tybalt’s rage and was too forceful to Juliet. Firstly, the feud between the Montagues and Capulets contributed to the deaths of the lovers. This is seen when the chorus states in the prologue, “Two households, both alike in dignity… From ancient grudge break to new mutiny, Where civil blood makes civil hands clean” (I, Prologue, 1-4). This refers to the long-standing feud between the Montagues and Capulets, which is the primary source of conflict in the play. This feud between the families resulted in the love between Romeo and Juliet to be forbidden, which caused great difficulty for the lovers. Therefore, if the parents would forgive the other family and end the feud, Romeo and Juliet would have likely been able to safely fall in love and marry, perhaps their love would even be encouraged, thus avoid their unnecessary deaths. Secondly, Lord Capulet failed to contain Tybalt’s anger, which eventually led to Romeo’s banishment, causing complications and the lover’s deaths. During the Capulet party, Tybalt had discovered that Romeo attended uninvited, as a result, Tybalt was furious and intended to slay Romeo, but Lord Capulet intervened and stopped Tybalt. However, Lord Capulet failed to prevent Tybalt from issuing his challenge the next day, leading to the death of Tybalt and the banishment of Romeo. Due to Lord Capulet’s failure to prevent Tybalt’s violent outburst, a series of events was set in motion: where Tybalt killed Mercutio, and in a rage, Romeo slew Tybalt, resulting in his banishment. This was a contributing factor in the deaths of the lovers, as Romeo’s banishment presented obstacles to the transfer of information, leading to the lovers’ suicides. Lastly, Lord Capulet forcing Juliet to marry Paris was another factor contributing to Romeo and Juliet’s deaths. Without

Although Juliet is often perceived as a helpless or love-sick child, if you read Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, you can tell that she is actually a sophisticated character. The play tells of a story about two families who are fighting a feud that has lasted for years. This feud results in the death of two lovers, Romeo and Juliet. Throughout the play, Juliet demonstrates how much thought she puts into her decisions and her future. When asked to marry Paris, she takes into consideration his looks. When she realizes that the man who she believes is her “true love” is a Montague, she is able to recognize that it is just a meaningless name, not a sign of character. And nearing the end, she is crafty, tricking her parents and Paris into believing

“A glooming peace this morning with it brings. The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head. Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things. Some shall be pardon’d and some punished, for never was a story of more woe than this of Juliet and her Romeo” (Act V Scene III of William Shakespeare’s play, Romeo and Juliet). That is what the Prince decrees at the end of the play, he is speaking of the love Romeo and Juliet had for one another. The prince believes that the reason they killed themselves is because they loved each other so much that they killed themselves because of their family feud and that it was forbidden love. However, that was not the whole truth and someone knew the entire truth, but didn’t say a word, he knew that if he said anything it would jeopardize him and his life because the punishment for what Friar Laurence had done was unthinkable, maybe he’d become a prisoner, have him killed, or perhaps have him stripped of his priestly duties and banished from the city of Verona. So it is evident he would not tell the truth about what he had in fact done and no one would ever know since the only other people that knew of the crime Friar Laurence committed were Romeo and Juliet and they were both dead.

In the play Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare conveys the theme that love is such a strong emotion that it can lead to death. After Romeo finds out that Juliet died, he immediately went to get poison to kill himself and says “The doors of breath, seal with a righteous kiss/A date bargain to engrossing death” (5.3.114-115). In this quote Romeo explains that he must die to be with his love. This supports the theme because his love for Juliet is so strong that he kills himself to be with Juliet. The theme that love is such a strong emotion that it can lead to death is prominent through the story.

Tybalt, Juliet's cousin, saw Romeo at the Capulet ball and he was furious and seek revenge. After Romeo and Juliet were married Tybalt approached Romeo, Romeo tried to make peace, but he gave in and fought Tybalt. Romeo killed him and was therefore, banished from Verona. Seeks Friar Lawrence's help, he moves to Mantua and Juliet’s parents were forcing her to marry Count Paris. She then seeks help from the Friar who gives her a potion which will make it seem as if she was dead. Romeo hears and rushes to Verona were he finds Juliet ‘allegedly’ dead. He then kills himself next to her and she wakes up to see him dead and she then kills herself. After the two are dead the Friar explains what has happened and the families are no longer rivals.

Since reading has been around, it has been used to educate. Romeo and Juliet has been around for what seems as long as literature itself, and is still used to teach to this day. Written in the 1590’s, the tragic story of Romeo and Juliet is about the untimely death of two children, who happen to be in despite their feuding families. Throughout reading, it becomes clear that the attitudes of the Montagues and Capulets, Friar Lawrence and the Nurse filling parental roles, and Juliet’s forced marriage caused the shocking deaths of the pair. If the parents of the two young lovers could have looked past their differences and let their children decide who to love, they could have spared themselves the heartbreak of losing their children.
