The Capulets Downfall in William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet

Everyone has their different opinions on who is to blame for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet. Romeo and Juliet is about two people that fall in love from two different families who are in a feud with each other. Lord Capulet is to blame for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet because when Romeo was at the Capulet part he didn’t let Tybalt do anything to make Romeo leave. Reason two is he is the one that planned for Juliet to get married to Paris without her consent. The third reason is because after Juliet says okay to marrying Paris (going along with the Friar’s plan), Lord Capulet tries moving the wedding day up to Wednesday instead of Thursday.

Romeo Montague and Juliet Capulet, two star-crossed lovers, will do anything to show their deep affection for each other. Since they are from two different families, who happen to be enemies, they can be punished for expressing their love for one another. Unfortunately, their passion sparks many outrages. Due to Father Capulet’s feud with the Montague family, Romeo and Juliet's love life results in death.

Firstly, some people believe that the parents of Romeo and Juliet were to blame for their deaths because of the ongoing feud between the two families. The argument between the Montague’s and Capulets is mentioned in the prologue, ‘Two households, both alike in dignity, in fair Verona where we lay our scene, from ancient grudge break, to new mutiny, where civil hands make civil hands unclean, from

The Capulets are one of the responsible ones for the death of Romeo and Juliet because they weren’t supportive, they were uncaring, and impatient. When Juliet told her parents that she did not want to marry Paris, the Capulets wanted to disown her. “Hang thee, young baggage! Hang thee, young baggage! Disobedient wretch! I tell thee 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.—Wife, we scarce thought us blest. That God had lent us but this only child, But now I see this one is one too much And that we have a curse in having her. Out on her, hilding!” (3:5:170). Capulet was being unsupportive of his own daughters decision. If he did not force her to marry Paris, then Juliet would not have to come up with a way to get out of the marriage. Lady Capulet does not support her own daughter either. “Talk not to me, for I’ll not speak a word. Do as thou wilt, for I have done with thee.” (3.5.215) Lady Capulet stopped caring about what her daughter wanted. If she had listened to Juliet, hen Juliet would have not planned a way out of the wedding. Lady Capulet did not take Juliets feeling into consideration and forced her to finding a

The Capulet’s and Montague’s are responsible for the death of Romeo and Juliet because of the hatred between the families.

Juliet's parents were not caring for their family. They only cared about themselves and did not take proper care of their daughter, as a result of their daughter’s death. They would ignore her at times except when they were in front of the guests. Additionally, Lady Capulet thought that Juliet grieving over her cousin’s death was foolish and made her look stupid, “Evermore weeping for your cousin’s death? What, wilt thou wash him from his grave with tears? An if thou couldst, thou couldst not make him live. Therefore, have done. Some grief shows much of love, But much of grief shows still some want of wit.” (Shakespeare.3.5.69-74). Juliet's parents were the root of Juliet's death, because of how uncaring and disregarding they were of Juliet.

The deaths of Romeo and Juliet were ultimately caused by the family feud between the Montague family and the Capulet family. It is the family’s fault for their deaths is because if it weren’t for them, Romeo and Juliet wouldn’t have had to keep their love

Romeo and Juliet’s lack of parental guidance encourages their disloyalty towards their respective families and their willingness to disregard their identity as a Montague or Capulet, creating a new identity based off of Romeo and Juliet’s relationship for them. Romeo and Juliet both do not receive proper guidance from their respective parents, which causes them to not hold as much importance for their respective families. As a result, Romeo and Juliet begin to disregard and not take pride in their identity as a Montague or Capulet, as Juliet is willing to “no longer be a Capulet” (II.ii.39) for Romeo, while Romeo also considers himself a Capulet after their marriage. Romeo and Juliet start to consider their relationship more important than

Juliet’s parents are partly to blame for the deaths of Romeo and their daughter. Lady Capulet seemed to be an extremely strict and pushy mother. “Do as thou wilt, for I have done with thee.” She and her husband should have paid more attention to Juliet’s wishes and should not have been so

Both the Montagues and the Capulets can be blamed for the deaths of their children. From the quote in the story “from forth the fatal loins of these two foes”(Doc A) shows that they could be blamed because Romeo and Juliet were born into families that were feuding with each other for generations. Also Lady Capulet is pressuring Juliet to marry Paris and the quote that supports this is “Well think of marriage now”(Doc B). Capulet is to blame because he knows that Juliet doesn’t want to marry Paris but he tells her “or never look me in the face” telling Juliet he will disown her (Doc D). The feud between the Capulets and Montagues is clearly linked to Romeo’s and Juliet’s death through language in the Prologue, and the Capulets are particularly to blame for forcing their daughter to marry someone she doesn’t love.

In the play of Romeo and Juliet, there are plenty of characters to blame for Romeo and Juliet's death. However, the character or characters most to blame is the Capulets. Even though Friar Lawrence is the one who married them in the first place and he was the one who gave Juliet the vile of poison, which was part of a completely messed up plan to get Romeo and Juliet back together, he isn't most to blame. If Juliet's parents would have just been okay with Romeos family in the beginning, the relationship between the star-crossed lovers would've been completely acceptable. "I will bite my thumb at them, which is a disgrace to them (1. 1. 33), " threatened Sampson, a Capulet, towards Abraham, a Montague. These family's had Avery long history of hatred towards each other.

The person to blame is Lord Capulet for the deaths of young Romeo and Juliet.There are lots of reasons on way he is to blame.One of the reasons is that he let Romeo stay at Capulet party.Tybalt told Lord Capulet to kick Romeo out of the party because he can’t tolerate Romeo.But Lord Capulet said Romeo is staying and he is a nice gentlemen and he should tolerate Romeo.If Lord Capulet kicked Romeo out of the party Romeo would have never met Juliet.If Lord Capulet handed the invititaion letter to someone who could read the clown would have never ran into Romeo and Mercutio.It is also Lord Capulets fault for never talking to Juliet.Lord Capulet should have did some work on his servent to see if any of them could read so he could gave the invitation list to who ever could read.

Romeo and Juliet’s parents are somewhat responsible for Romeo and Juliet’s death because of their feud between the two families. If it wasn’t for the feud, the two lovers wouldn’t have to hide their love for eachother from everyone. Another reason could be that Romeo and Juliet’s parents forced Juliet to marry Count Paris, but she couldn’t marry him because she was already married to Romeo. Lady Capulet believed that arranged marriage was the way to go so that also shows that Juliet had an irresponsible mom. Therefore, since their parents had the feud, forced marriage, and Juliet's irresponsible mom, it could be their parents fault.
