Romeo And Juliet Or Her Parents

Does love really conquer all or is it destiny who determines the lover’s fate? Romeo and Juliet, William Shakespeare, Play, is a story about two “star-crossed lovers” (Shakespeare Prologue.6) whose love is fatal because of their opposing families and misfortunate events lead the couple to their death. In Romeo and Juliet, William Shakespeare uses the motif of destiny to suggest that destiny is inevitable because everyone has their own fate for a reason which cannot be altered no matter the great lengths taken.

Have you ever wondered why Romeo and Juliet truly died? What was the cause of their death? Let me tell you. Romeo and Juliet were lovers who lived in brawling families. They loved each other so much that they couldn’t stand to be apart. Romeo thought Juliet died, so he killed himself; however, Juliet was not dead. She had taken a potion to make her seem dead so Romeo and she could be together. After Juliet woke and saw Romeo dead, she decided to kill herself as well. After Juliet woke and saw Romeo dead, she decided to kill herself as well, and their families stopped fighting.Friar Lawrence, the parents, and Tybalt are to blame for the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet.

First of all, The Nurse supports Juliet throughout the majority of the play, but her unsound advice is a notable reason for the young lovers’ downfall. For instance, Juliet appreciates The Nurse’s help during the beginning of her and Romeo’s relationship, but what Juliet is blind to is the damage that The Nurse does as she unintentionally leads Juliet to her death when she says “Then hie you hence to Friar Laurence’ cell;/ There stays a husband to make you a wife” (Shakespeare, II, v, 68-69). In essence, the wedding that The Nurse encourages Romeo and Juliet to have reflects her negative influence on their relationship as Juliet is left increasingly vulnerable to Romeo’s impulsivity, which is an extremely relevant cause of Juliet’s eventual demise. Additionally, both Romeo and Juliet are significantly affected by the immature behavior of their kin. Specifically, Juliet displays her eradicated ability to form rational decisions when she speaks of the pressure her family puts on her as she says “My only love sprung from my only hate!/ Too early seen unknown, and known too late!/ Prodigious birth of love it is to me/ That I must love a loathed enemy” (Shakespeare, I, v, 138-141). This internal conflict that arises when Juliet discovers that Romeo is a Montague is of significance

Lady Capulet tells Juliet that she wishes that Juliet would be dead. Lady Capulet saying this shows her strictness to not appreciate her daughter's’ view on marriage. The Nurse uses her easy-going personality to be laid-back with Juliet and push her to elope with Romeo, Juliet carelessly takes her advice. However, when Juliet tells Lady Capulet, she does not approve of it, showing her strictness. Shakespeare’s progression of the foil characters, the Nurse and Lady Capulet show that other people’s morals can affect another person’s actions and confuse their own thoughts. The Nurse and Lady Capulet both have different views on love and marriage. The two different views and morals confuse Juliet’s mind and makes the tragedy all the more tragic. The Nurse risked her life to help Juliet elope with Romeo, by doing this, she is showing that she wants Juliet to follow her heart at all costs. The Nurse contributed to the secret marriage plan, “Then hie you hence you to Friar Laurence's’ cell; There stays a husband to make you a wife” (II.v.67-68). The Nurse is telling Juliet that she will send Romeo and Juliet to Friar

Romeo and Juliet From William Shakespeare Romeo and Juliet is the most famous love story in the English literary tradition. The most important theme is love, specifically, love at first sight between Romeo and Juliet. I chose to write about the Nurse because she is the personal servant, guardian and former wet nurse of Juliet Capulet, and has been with Juliet since she was born. This character played a strong part in allowing Romeo and Juliet’s relationship to grow and their passion to become stronger because she sends the letters to Romeo and helped them arrange their secret marriage. She also affected the tragic ending because she did not intervene when Juliet was to marry Paris. Because of the fight between the Capulets and the Montagues,

The play Romeo and Juliet centers around star-crossed lovers, Romeo and Juliet, who are caught in an old family feud. Juliet is a young girl who has two mother figures, Lady Capulet and the Nurse, who serve as foils for each other as they influence Juliet’s relationship with the suitors in her life. The Lady Capulet is the wife of Lord Capulet and the mother of Juliet. When she married Lord Capulet she became the lady of the house and entered into the old feud between the Montagues and the Capulets. She has a formal relationship with her daughter and tries to convince her daughter to marry Paris, a suitable match. The Nurse has raised Juliet and treats her as a daughter, but supports her inappropriate

One of Shakespeare’s most known plays is the love story between Romeo and Juliet, which ends up as a tragedy. There are many different reasons and causes to why this tragedy occurred between the two young lovers, Romeo and Juliet, Friar Laurance, their parents and also the element of fate. Romeo and Juliet are two young lovers who seem to rush the love between each other by becoming married to after only a matter of hours of knowing each other. Friar Laurence who should have been smarter in his actions by marry the two which ending up causing this tragedy, also both Romeo and Juliets have a role that ended up causing their children a tragic

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 nurse is both a mother figure for Juliet, and a best-friend of sorts. Many individuals would question the logic of including The Nurse in a discussion of the ‘bad-guys’ in Romeo and Juliet. Regardless, it is obvious that Nurse holds incredible sway with Juliet, and Juliet adores Nurse throughout the play, until she “betrays” Juliet. Nurse comments that Juliet should marry Paris, and this is an obvious betrayal of Juliet’s trust. Nurse says “I think it best if you married with the COunty.

The Capulet’s Nurse raised Juliet from a young age, and was like a mother to her. Nurse’s wish that Juliet marry one day becomes apparent early in the play, as she tells Juliet:

A constant theme of infatuation progressively is displayed throughout Romeo and Juliet, starting with an innocent desire for true love, and ending in death. Romeo and Juliet are the main characters that display the obsession through dialogue. The first sign of infatuation began with Romeo. He claimed, “love, whose view is muffled still, should without eyes, see pathways to his will” (Shakespeare 20). Romeo is obsessed with the idea of love, and is convinced that love controls you. He ends up getting confused and makes statements about how love is “heavy and light”, “bright and dark”, “hot and cold,” (Shakespeare 20). These oxymoronic assertions show that Romeo is infatuated with the idea of love, even though he hasn’t even really

Juliet doesn’t want to marry Paris and the Nurse agrees with that, she doesn’t want her to marry him either. Juliet will go to the Nurse for advice or opinions rather than her actual mother. Juliet sends the nurse to talk to Romeo and expected her back after half an hour, however she did not return for hours. She spent this time making sure Romeo was a good fit for her Juliet. We see more of her motherly ways in the lines when she says "Nurse: God forbid! Where's this girl? What, Juliet! Juliet: How now! Who calls? Nurse: Your mother." Although this is talking about Lady Capulet, wanting Juliet Shakespeare established clear connection of with Nurse to Mother when she responds with that. The Nurse especially though wants Juliet happy and even helps Romeo and Juliet get married. She is a very important mother figure that helped guide Juliet through everything.

Lady Capulet, the mother of Juliet, in Verona, Italy in the 14th century, has her hands full by being the head of one of the two upper class families. They Capulet’s and Montague’s have always fought since the beginning of time. Her daughter, Juliet falls in love with the son of the Montague’s, Romeo. Lady Capulet did not take care of Juliet during her childhood; luckily Juliet became very close with the nurse. The Nurse filled as a mother for Juliet, because her own daughter passed as a young kid. Although Lady Capulet and the Nurse have many similarities, they are used as a contrast to each other, making them foils. They would not have a role in the story without each other.

Romeo and Juliet was Shakespeare’s most famous play which is about love of two teenagers of two rival families. Since Romeo’s family and Juliet’s family are rivals, their families don’t agree with the marriage of their children to each other. However, Romeo and Juliet despite the opposition of their families secretly get married at church and insist on reaching their goal of being together. The whole story is played in the theatre style of the Renaissance; audiences could see violence, young boys are playing female rolls without wearing masks, many scenes and time change. However, if it was played in Greek theatre style, the audience could see a different style of performance and there would be a different effect. In Greek Theatre we would
