Romeo and Juliet Revision

Romeo matures as he is more shocked about what has happened between Tybalt who is his cousin. Tybalt died defending Romeo, as the scene continues Romeo is worried about the future and how it will be affected by the event that has happened today. The ways Romeo has remained unchanged as he still offers his love for Juliet even though her cousin has been the one responsible for Tybalt's death. Romeo says its time for him to rage his actions. Romeo is trying to put the pieces together as of what has just happened, the family is already feuding so Tybalt's death will be the beginning as another fight between the two. Romeo wants to kill Benvolio, Romeo tells Benvolio that he will join in heaven with Mercutio. Romeo develops because, all he wants

In the final scene, Romeo’s thoughts and actions are very rash when he decides to kill himself. When Romeo is told that Juliet has died, he immediately decides to kill himself. Romeo does not think of the pain and suffering that will come to his family and friends if he kills himself. Again, Romeo acts without thinking of the consequences of his actions. He has done without thought a sin that is not necessary and that could be avoided. Once again Romeo’s rashness brings causes problems and brings sadness to people that he loves.

A part of his character is shown when he hears the news that Juliet is dead and he leaves to go to Juliet straight away without thinking about it. “No matter. Get thee going and hire those horses. I’ll be with thee straight.” This quote shows that Romeo wants to be with Juliet no matter what and he will hurry to see her. “et me have a dram of poison, such soon-speeding gear.” This quote shows that Romeo is asking for poison to kill himself so he can be with Juliet. Romeo’s character is very impulsive.

Firstly, in the book, the characters are shown future events of the consequences from their actions, but still take no precaution towards it, which shows readers that even if a person sees their fate in the future, it won’t change the outcomes. Romeo is depressed by Rosaline, so Mercutio and Benvolio try to convince Romeo to go to a party at the Capulets to cheer him up. As the conversation goes on, Romeo eventually tells them that he’s had a dream, and is afraid it will come true, but Mercutio tells him not to worry about it. Shakespeare says in the book Romeo and Juliet that, “I fear too early, for my mind misgives some consequence yet hanging in the stars shall bitterly begin his fearful date with this night's revels and expire the term of a despised life,

Romeo’s overly emotional personality and his obsession with love override his rational thought, which causes the deaths of Romeo and Juliet. After hearing of what is thought to be the death of Juliet, Romeo decides that he cannot live without his true love. In despair, he says, “Well, Juliet, I will lie with thee tonight./Let’s see for means. O mischief, thou art swift/To enter in the thoughts of desperate man” (V.i 37-39). Romeo then buys

Foreshadowing in Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet Throughout Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare uses many examples of foreshadowing to presage what will happen later in the book, which makes the play more interesting to the audience. The most foreshadowed event in the book is that Romeo and Juliet will be each others undoing. Shakespeare has several characters mention a bad feeling they have about a certain situation. Right before entering the Capulet’s party, Romeo pauses and says: “I fear too early, for my mind misgives

All teenagers have their moments, moments where they make an incredibly dumb decision after thinking about it for maybe two seconds or moments when they take extreme actions for minimal reasons. Some are worse than others, but the character Romeo in Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet has “teenage moments” that are sure to exceed any and all you have ever heard of. Romeo is the character most to blame for the tragic events in Romeo and Juliet because he acted overly impulsive, he felt the emotions of the situations too deeply resulting in him acting dramatic, and he was too quick to go to the extremes. Romeo is the most to blame for the events that occur in Romeo and Juliet because he acted overly impulsive. In scene 3, Mercutio and Tybalt start to fight.

Romeo is very impulsive. You can see this trait when he says “Alive in triumph, and Marcutio slain? And fire-eyed fury be my conduct now! Now, Tybalt, take the “villain” back again…” (Shakespeare 429). He is very loving, but because he’s so impulsive, he doesn’t make the best decisions regarding love. He decides to kill

As John Updike once said, “Dreams come true. Without that possibility, nature would not incite us to have them.” In other words, Updike is saying that dreams can become reality as he believes that their purpose is to come true. In Shakespeare's play, The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, Romeo shares a common line of thinking with Updike. Similar to his views on love, Romeo views dreams as real and a reflection of life, almost as if they were omens and can gives warnings about future events. When Romeo expresses doubt about going to the masquerade ball because of a dream he had, his friend Mercutio responds to this by saying that “Oh, then, I see Queen Mab hath been with you(I.4.Line).” Mercutio’s ideas of love, which he expresses through his use

On the contrary however Romeo shows a lot of patience, which is a rather mature characteristic. Through the responsibilities which come with the marriage especially Romeo matures a lot. The situation seems to be very confusing for Juliet; her cousin killed by her

Romeo is often chosen as the more mature character because of his age, impulsiveness and violent behaviour. However, these qualities do not override his ignorance towards the real world, which suggests he is incredibly juvenile. The contrast between Romeo and Juliet’s wisdom is substantial during their meeting by Juliet’s balcony, where they voice the reasons behind fearing their love. “I am afeard… all this is but a dream.” (Act 2, Scene 2, Lines 139-141). Whereas Romeo’s fear is influenced by the dreamlike nature of their love, a very naïve thought, Juliet’s worries lie in its abruptness. “It is too rash, too unadvised, too sudden.” (Act 2, Scene 2, Line 118). The word ‘unadvised’ suggests that Juliet believes their love lacks influence by others, a much more intelligent thought than that of Romeo. As such a well-developed character, Juliet has many other traits that identify her to be stronger than Romeo, including

Some ways through the play how he matured was Romeo was always by Juliet's side whenever he could be. Another way that Romeo had progressively matured throughout the play was when Tybalt had challenged Romeo to a duel and Romeo would not fight Tybalt because they were family now. Those are just some of the things that had matured Romeo throughout this play. When going and thinking about the play itself, there were some things that Romeo did that were impulsive like when he agreed to marry Juliet for only knowing her for a night. Or when Romeo had said that when the Prince had banished him from Verona inside of killing him that he said that he rather be dead than to be banished which Romeo should be lucky that he is Montague and the Prince had given him

Don’t you hate it when something doesn’t turn out the way you wanted it to? When you care so deeply about something and sacrifice so much just so that it can happen, but despite it all, ends in ruins. This is the theme of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. In this tragic tale, two fated lovers risk everything, even life itself, to be with one another. They go against family, friends and fate to be together. Had premonitions in the play been taken more seriously by key characters, tragedy could have been avoided.

When Romeo is dreaming, he thinks that he can trust is his dreams, and that is something good is just around the corner. He ironically dreams about how his wife would find him dead and would kiss him to bring him back to life. In a way, Shakespeare is foreshadowing that an event like this will happen. The way Shakespeare depicts Romeo in this scene makes the audience believe that both Romeo and Juliet were destined to be together, either in Verona or in heaven. Throughout the drama, the love that existed between Romeo and Juliet was extremely deep as they would no anything for each other, and in a way, as Shakespeare foreshadows their death, it seems they are destined to die together.

When Romeo reaches the tomb, we observe another transformation of Romeo. This time, he has become a character driven by anger and grief and speaks very horrifically to Balthasar as he says ‘strew this hungry churchyard with thy limbs’ and ‘more fierce and more inexorable far than empty tigers’. This could hint his fury against fate, however also it could imply that Romeo is utterly despondent and isn’t bothered by his actions anymore. When he encounters Paris, Romeo subtly begs him to ‘tempt not a desp’rate man’ but Romeo is pressurized to fight Paris. After killing Paris, Romeo remorsefully takes pity on Paris and fulfills his dying wish of ‘lay me with Juliet’. Romeo
