Romeo And Juliet's Struggles

In the story ¨Romeo and Juliet¨ by Shakespeare, many problems have occurred. Some of those being the huge conflict between the Capulets, and the Montagues, and Juliet's parents forcing her to marry Paris. Many people could be accused for causing some of the problems in Verona, but the two fighting families is the main one for a couple of reasons.

The play ‘Romeo and Juliet' is about two families who have been fighting for years. When Romeo falls in love with Juliet and Juliet falls in love with Romeo, there are many consequences, including the deaths of a member of each family – Mercutio and Tybalt.

This play is about a boy named Romeo and girl named Juliet. Their family are mortal enemies so that means that they are always fighting with one another. At a Capulet party Romeo and Juliet meet for the first time not knowing who each other are, until later that night that they are enemies. They begin to fall in love with each other and get married after meeting for one night. Then the drama gets to their head and they kill themselves. In Romeo and Juliet Capulet’s and Montague’s, Friar Lawrence, and Balthasar are responsible for the tragic deaths of Romeo and Juliet.

In Conclusion,there are people to take the blame. It all started with the undisputed hatred between two families which had a negative effect on Romeo, a Montague and Juliet, a Capulet. The death of family members in Capulet and Montague intensified the energy of being enraged. Juliet’s parents thought it was the best for her to marry Paris, but that made the situation even worse. She wanted to get away and escape with Romeo, yet that did not happen because of the letter not being sent due to quarantine. Mostly the families and destiny led Romeo and Juliet, the two star-crossed lovers, to their

Romeo’s love for Juliet caused the deaths of Tybalt and Mercutio. If Romeo had not fallen in love with Juliet, her cousin, Tybalt, would not have been angry at Romeo and wanted to kill him. Tybalt would not have killed Mercutio and Romeo would not have had to kill Tybalt in return. Romeo cannot fight Tybalt because his wife, Juliet, is a Capulet, “...But love thee better than thou canst devise Till thou shalt know the reason of my love and so, good Capulet, which name I tender as dearly as my own, be satisfied” (Shakespeare 3.1.66-69). This quote proves Romeo’s love for Juliet is so strong he resisted fighting Tybalt because he now loves the Capulet name, which caused Mercutio’s death as well.

To begin with to the statement made earlier about the claim that the Montague's and Capulet's were responsible for the death of their children. If both families didn’t have an ancient grudge bot4h of the children wouldn’t have died. The both families had an ongoing grudge that didn’t allow them to be married to one family to the other. In document A, “Two Households”, it states in the third line “From ancient grudge break to new mutiny.” Proving that both families had or have a grudge and that made the turn into a war. Making both households have a fight. Finally, if anyone had any contact with the opposing family they will be killed probably making Romeo and Juliet very scared to be together.

When Juliet says, “O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo? / Deny thy father and refuse they name, / Or if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love, / And I’ll no longer be a Capulet” (2.2.36-39), this displays the feuding hate between the two families, Montague, and Capulet. In William Shakespeare’s play, Romeo and Juliet, Ignorance and hate play a significant role. Without these two main aspects, the tragedies, would have not occurred. Three characters, Capulet, Lady Capulet, and Tybalt are directly and indirectly accountable for the deaths of Romeo, and Juliet. Capulet, is the father of Juliet, in which arranges her to marry Paris. Juliet does not like this, thus, caused dispute between both of them. Capulet displayed a very demanding character, being strict on rules. Lady Capulet, is of course the mother of Juliet, but started the whole topic of marriage at the beginning of the play. This was comparable to when Romeo liked Rosaline, but did not get the love back, as for now, Paris loved Juliet, however Juliet did not return the love back. Tybalt, is a member of the opposite family, the Montagues, in other words, the family hated by the Capulets. Tybalt also plays a character of hatred, as he kills Mercutio, first causing a fight, in who Romeo, liked very much, initiating trouble in the end. When this occurred Romeo said, “Why then, O brawling love, O loving hate, / O anything of nothing first create! / O heavy lightness, serious vanity, / Misshapen chaos of wee-seeming

Tybalt wanted to fight Romeo because he hated Romeo so much that he couldn’t bear the hate any longer that’s why Tybalt called Romeo a villain. Capulet stopping Tybalt from fighting Romeo caused Tybalt to look for Romeo to fight

The two family heads have held onto their feelings of hate and it has not done them any good, if anything it has got them into worse situations. Romeo and Juliet's parents might have even approved of their marriage if they had forgiven the other family. In Romeo and Juliet, Lord Montague's wife says to Lord Capulet “Thou shalt not stir one foot to seek a foe.”(Rom.1.1.78) If they had let go of the hate and resentment sooner, then perhaps the events that took place in the play would have taken a better turn. The ill feelings between the families caused these rapid events in “Romeo and Juliet”, and if they had resolved their problem earlier they could have easily avoided a

Because of this, they were almost ashamed of their love for each other. They hid their love and put way too much stress on themselves to keep it a secret. Without the families pressure and hatred, perhaps the two would not have felt the need to hide their relationship from their families. If they had told their families from the start, Tybalt most likely would have never killed Mercutio, Romeo would have never killed Tybalt, and Romeo would have never gotten banished to Mantua. Overall, the feud between the families was a completely unnecessary, avoidable incident.

Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy that involves young lovers, their “untimely death,” and a feud between their two families. The Capulets and the Montagues war against each other. The feud continues to escalate and provides the background for the story of these “two star-crossed lovers.” This literary masterpiece is still relevant today since it involves parental ambition, family fighting, and young love.

I knew the families didn't like each other when Tybalt said to Juliet, "This is a Montague, our foe." (Pg.8) The family feud is a cause of Romeo and Juliet's death because if their was no family feud Romeo and Juliet wouldn't have to sneak around or be worried about their families not approving of one another. In the story it says, "In 42 hours, she will awake, and by then Friar Laurence will have fetched Romeo home from Mantua, and he can take Juliet back there." (Pg.22) If there wasn't a family feud Juliet wouldn't have to lie to her parents, nor would she have tried to sneak off with Romeo. The feud is responsible for the deaths because it forces Tybalt to get Romeo banished and it causes Juliet to take the potion so she could be with her love Romeo.

The Capulet’s were known to be the ones continuing the family feud as they were always the ones provoking the Montague’s and starting the fights. As males were the head of the family in charge, he is to blame for the continuing feud. Fate was also a major role with this flaw. Although Lord Capulet was blamed for continuing the feud, this plays along with fate and that fate kept this feud going. Act 1 Scene 1 Line 65 he says to Lady Capulet, “What noise is this? Give me my long sword, ho!” If the feud was not continued by Lord Capulet, Romeo and Juliet wouldn’t have had to hide their love for one another nor keep their marriage a secret. Romeo wouldn’t have been banished for killing Tybalt and most importantly, they wouldn’t have died. In this scenario Lord Capulet should not have tried to pull out weapons to fight the Montague’s as it is shown that the feud between the families can be linked back to him, as he is being confrontational and aggressive. Lord Capulet was exceptionally antagonistic towards the Montague’s, leading towards the feud being continued which spiralled towards the tragic

Since the parents didn’t like each other it rubbed off on everyone else in the families. Tybalt, who was mad at Romeo, probably wouldn’t have been mad at him if it wasn’t for the feud. This prevalent in the following: Tybalt says, “ This, by voice, should be a Montague. Fetch me my rapier,boy...Now by the stock and honor of my kin, To strike him dead I hold not a sin.” This is obvious that the parents were at fault, because it affected the family members too. It made them hate the other family without having a valid reason. “Two households, both alike in dignity..”,
