Similarities Between Romeo And Juliet

Also, there is Paris who is supposed to marry Juliet and he went to Friar Lawrence to ask to marry Juliet to him. Paris says this to Juliet when she entered the church and started to talk to the Fair and Paris “Do not deny to him that you love me.” Paris is very denial about Juliet saying that she doesn’t love him. Paris has rarely spoken to Juliet and keeps saying that they love each other but Juliet's heart is for Romeo but he doesn’t know that.

The scene we are presenting and talking about is act 4 scene 1. This scene is about Paris telling the Friar about how he and Juliet are about to be married. But this is only to the extent that he understands; he doesn't know that she is already married to another man. But Juliet actually goes to Friar to pick up a potion to kill herself. Paris after that talks to Juliet about her having to love him or else their marriage won't work out leaving tension between them.

When Romeo and Juliet were getting married in Act I, Scene VI, Friar Lawrence said “These violent delights have violent ends.” This line foreshadows a numerous amount of things, one of them is that developing a dramatic irony. The irony is that Count Paris wishes to seek Capulet’s daughter’s hand in marriage, Juliet, and we know that she is married with Romeo. Paris comes to plan the marriage with Friar Lawrence, and the Friar knows that Juliet is in love and is married with Romeo. Juliet enters shortly after and pretends that she needs to confess to the Friar. When the Friar and Juliet are talking, she briefly describes all of the things she would rather do than marry Count Paris. She would rather leap from a tall tower. She would rather walk where thieves lay. She would rather sit down with the snakes; or chain her with roaring bears. This shows Juliet’s determination in loving Romeo and being by his side at all times. These words are very demeaning and if Count Paris were to hear what Juliet was saying, it would crush his ego and dignity. Juliet’s derogative words just shows her will in loving Romeo and defying all odds. She is a very strong willed, determined and independent young

As the play starts to end Friar says “A thing like death to, chide away this shame, that cop’st with death himself to scape from it; and if thou darest, I’ll give there remedy.” (Act 4 scene 1 page 65). As friar said this, he was basically telling Juliet he has a way out of this marriage with Paris, but they are too hasty with death, they could've thought of another idea like running away and not having a big trouble at the end. As Romeo sees Juliet in the ending act he does “Thou desperate pilot, now at once run on The dashing rocks thy sea-sick weary bark! Here’s to my love [Drinks] O true apothec’ry, Thy drugs are quick. [kisses her] Thus with a kiss I die. [Dies]” (Act 5 scene 3 Page 80). This reveals that Romeo found Juliet dead and kills himself her his love for her, it also shows that Romeo made a decision way too fast and put no thought in it. But as the play ended Romeo and Juliet kill themselves for each other and ends up to be a really bad

After talking to Romeo on the balcony, Juliet says to him, “If that thy bent of love be honorable, / Thy purpose marriage, send me word tomorrow.” (2.2, L. 150). In other words, she is telling Romeo that if he truly loves her, he must propose. She is not indirect about what she wants, and it is shown that she is determined to get it. Another situation is as Friar tries to get Juliet to leave with him, she says,“Go get thee hence, for I wilt not away....”(Act 5.3, Line 165). Even after the Friar begs, she sticks with her feelings and will not change her decision unless she wants to. At this moment in the story, Juliet is about to face her death, yet till the very end, she stays loyal to her own decisions. Lastly, when she tells her wishes to the Friar about her wedding, she shows her determination yet again as she says, “O, bid me leap, rather than marry Paris, From off the battlements of any tower, Or walk in thievish ways, or bid me lurk. Where serpents are. Chain me with roaring bears, Or hide me nightly in a charnel house, O’ercovered quite with dead men’s rattling bones, With reeky shanks and yellow chapless skulls. Or bid me go into a new-made grave And hide me with a dead man in his shroud, And I will do it without fear or doubt, To live an unstained wife to my sweet love.”(4.1, L. 78). Though her parents want her to marry Paris, she would rather endure very risky situations. She is

In document B, the Lady Capulet is questioning her about marriage asking if she can love Paris “The valiant Paris seeks you for his love… What say you? Can you love the gentleman? This night you shall behold him at our feast;”(DBQ: Who’s to Blame, Document B). Once again throughout the poem, Lady Capulet tells Juliet she has to get married “But now I’ll tell thee joyful tidings, girl… Marry, my child, early next Thursday morn...The County Paris, at Saint Peter’s Church, Shall happily make thee there a joyful bride” (DBQ: Who’s to Blame, Document D) and Juliet refuses because she was previously married to Romeo and getting married to two people without an annulment is a sin “...He shall not make thee there a joyful bride...” (DBQ: Who’s to Blame, Document D). Whenever her father learns of Juliet's refusal he goes wild “Hang thee, young baggage! Disobedient wretch! I tell the what: get thee to church o’ Thursday Or never after look me in the face: Speak not, reply, not do not answer me; My fingers itch”. Afterwards, Juliet begs Friar for a way to prevent this marriage and he gives her a potion. Him giving her the potion in the end killed Paris, Romeo and

In Act IV of Romeo and Juliet, things start looking up for Juliet as Friar Lawrence gives her a potion to fake her death so she will able to escape with Romeo. Hurrying to the Friar’s cell to seek help, Friar Laurence tells Juliet to plead for forgiveness and she would drink a poison that will fake her death for 42 hours. Leaving Friar’s cell Juliet hurries home to plead for forgiveness and that she will agree to Paris’ marriage. After being forgiven Juliet is starting to have doubts about the potion, but drinks it anyways. Going on at the same time, the Capulet family is preparing for the wedding in the morning. In the morning, the Nurse discovers Juliet’s “dead” body and everyone is confused and saddened at the sight of their child

Romeo and Juliet and the book Night are different, and also the same in many ways. There are a few obvious reasons they are similar and reasons they aren't. Here is a few different ways they were different.

Who's to Blame in Romeo and Juliet? Romeo and Juliet by Shakespeare was a love tragedy. In Romeo and Juliet the two households are the Capulet's and the Montague's. They have been fighting for a very long time and still continue to fight. Juliet a Capulet, falls in love with a Montague, Romeo.

Then to make the matters worse, Juliet has to marry Paris. She is forced into a marriage where she didn't love the man and she was also married to Romeo at the same time. This is completely against her religion forcing her to disagree with her parents on the marriage, resulting in an argument. "An you be not, hang, beg, starve, die in the streets," is what Capulet ranted to Juliet after she disagreed to marring Paris. Not to mention her mother didn't even care what she did after the argument, she says "Do as thou wilt, for I have done with thee (3. 5. 205). This scares Juliet and also enrages her. She doesn't know what to do at this point besides either talking to Friar Laurence. "I'll to the Friar, to know his remedy," and if that doesn't work, "myself have power to die" (3. 5. 241). She would kill herself because she would be banished from her own home if she didn't marry or she would basically never see Romeo again, plus be married to a person she doesn't love. Her parents don't even care about anymore over a marriage. That seems unreasonable and makes sense to completely disown their

Juliet wanted to do this because she did not want to marry Paris. It would have been better is Juliet would have told her parents that she did not want to marry Paris. As Friar Lawrence said, ‘’... Take thou this vial, being then in bed, And this distilled liquor drink thou off; When presently through all thy veins shall run a cold and drowsy humor, for no pulse shall keep his native progress, but surcease. No warmth, no breath shall testify thou livest.

Second, when Juliet was asked about marriage and when she wanted to be wedded, she told her parents she had no interest in marrying, and she thought she was too young. “Marry, that 'marry' is the very theme I came to talk of.—Tell me, daughter Juliet, How stands your disposition to be married? It is an honor that I dream not of.”(1.3.68-71) This is the first time Juliet is asked about marriage, and she clearly makes it known that she is not interested. Out of nowhere, Capulet arranges the marriage of Juliet and Paris on Thursday. Juliet says she does not want to be married to Paris, and says that she will not truly be happy. Lord Capulet does not like what Juliet says, and gets very angered with her. He even goes on to say that she is not welcome under his roof if she doesn’t marry him. Without having any support from her parents, Juliet feels very alone. First, she does not want to get married to Paris, and second, she is in love with a Montague. This is all frowned upon from both families, and the only people Juliet seems to trust are Friar Lawrence, and the Nurse. Unfortunately, Nurse even suggests she marry Paris, so the only people she feels are on her side are Friar Lawrence and Romeo. When Romeo and Juliet decide to take their own lives, the fact that they didn't have many other people besides themselves made suicide more appealing to them.They were desperate to be with each other.

Juliet's marriage to Paris was arranged and not a result of true love. Paris confessed his love to her parents, who then shared that information with her. When they told her she didn't like it. Juliet told Capulet she didn't want to marry Paris, but Capulet told her that if she doesn't marry Paris her family will disown her. In act 4 Capulet tells Juliet "...get thee to the church o' Thursday, or never after look me in the face...". Juliet was being forced to get married. The Capulet's started planning the wedding despite how Juliet felt. As result Juliet faked her death, which eventually lead to her

Capulet announcing that Juliet will marry Paris adds more stress to Juliet than she already had. Capulet did not raise Juliet like the nurse did, and doubtlessly expects Juliet to take orders like an army sergeant. Although, Juliet acts desperate and immature throughout the situation and cries, “Be not so long to speak; I long to die,/ If what thou speak'st speak not of remedy” (4.1.94-95), Since Juliet tries to kill herself, the father has to act as a therapist and solve Juliet’s problems. After Paris’s proposal, Juliet places the Friar under a time crunch because Juliet’s wedding will arrive soon Not to mention, Juliet must also quickly figure out a plan because she thrown out of her house. Capulet instinctively assumes that Juliet ungratefully decided not to marry Paris even though he implies that he created happiness on a golden platter. Capulet screams, “Hang thee, young baggage! disobedient wretch!.../ Or never after look me in the face…”

2. Conflicts In III.iv Lord and Lady Capulet discuss Tybalt’s death with Paris. They tell him that Juliet has confined herself up because of this event. Tybalt has been regarded as a guy of hatred against the Montague.
