Who Was Responsible For Romeo And Juliet's Death

The deaths of the two lovers Romeo and Juliet were unnecessary and could have been avoided in many ways. The main person that is to blame for their deaths is Friar Lawrence. The Friar was an outsider looking into the family feud thinking it was ridiculous for the two lovers to not be able to be together. He underestimated the seriousness of this family feud and overestimated in Romeo and Juliet and neither were mature enough to go through with his complex plan. The Friar is the person most to blame for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet because, he was the one who gave Juliet the sleeping potion as part of his plan to fake her death, he conducted the awful plan to fake Juliet’s death, and followed through with the plan without properly informing

First, the families at the beginning of the feud were responsible for Romeo and Juliet’s death. In Document A it says, “From ancient grudge break to new mutiny.” This means that the feud between the families started a very long time ago. Throughout

In this play Romeo and Juliet are mostly responsible for their own death, Juliet is mostly responsible for Romeos death because when she pretended to be dead so that her family wouldn’t force her to marry Paris she did not till Romeo that she is not really dead and that she is just pretending to be dead because of her family. When Romeo heard the news about Juliet’s death he decided to take his life and Romeo killed himself only because Juliet forgot to tell him about her fake death act. “ well, Juliet, I will lie with thee tonight”(5,1,36) Romeo thought that Juliet is really dead so he bought a bottle of poison and drank it so he could be with Juliet.

What contributed to the death of Romeo and Juliet was the family feud between them,

Taking Responsibility for the Deaths of Romeo and Juliet in William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet

If the two families had not been in a feud, then Romeo and Juliet could have happily been

All of this may be true, but the feud is ultimately responsible for Romeo and Juliet’s deaths. The feud between the families created separation and revulsion between the

To Romeo and Juliet's families, their differences defined them. For whatever reason that started the feud, they let it defined what they thought of each other.

In Romeo and Juliet fate had a lot to do with their deaths, as it proves in the prologue the two households, the Capulets and the Montagues were enemies. Romeo and Juliet had no chance of being together because of fate and the feud. The two families are both to blame because of the parents rage. “Death-mark’d love”.(DBQ: Project, 2013) This quote explains how Romeo and Juliet’s love only leads to death. “Star Crossed Lovers”.(DBQ:Project, 2013) This means that Romeo and Juliet’s parents are trying to keep them away from each other because if not bad stuff will happen.

Juliet and Romeo’s families didn't understand their love. They only cared about the feud between the families.

Romeo and Juliet died because they couldn’t live without each other. The feuding lead to Tybalt's death which led to Capulet wanting to rush Juliet into marrying Paris. Had Capulet not rushed Juliet’s decision to marry Paris, Juliet would not have faked her death. Romeo believing Juliet was dead led to Romeo killing himself. So, when Juliet awakened to find Romeo dead she felt as though she couldn’t live without him and drove a dagger into her heart to join Romeo wherever he went. By the end of the story, the families stop feuding because they realize that feuding only led to their children's deaths. Had Romeo and Juliet never met their family feud may have never

After Romeo and Juliet had both committed suicide the Prince was making sense of the situation, “Where be these enemies?-Capulet, Montague, See what a scourge is laid upon your hate, And I, for winking at your discords too, Have lost a brace of kinsmen. All are punished” (5.3.301-305). This explains that the deaths of Romeo and Juliet were a punishment for the feud between the Capulets and Montagues a likely explanation for why fate caused the deaths. Also, fate may have stopped the fighting to avoid any other deaths related to the feud. While this is one of the big causes for fate to have the lovers killed another one is also relevant. When Shakespeare is summarizing the play to the audience he states something significant about the result of the lovers deaths: “Doth with their death bury their parents’ strife. The fearful passage of their death-marked love and the continuance of their parents’ rage, which, but their children’s end, naught could remove” (Pro.8-11). The greater good is demonstrated in this passage as it explains that the deaths of Romeo and Juliet brought their fighting families together. This bigger cause is the main reason why fate decided to kill the lovers. In conclusion, fate is shown to have caused the deaths because their are two relevant reasons for fate to have done

In Romeo and Juliet they move faster than cars on a race track. The whole story between them last 3 days. They meet,get married, and die. If they didn’t die their lives would be miserable.They don’t even know what the other person likes or their personality. At that time nobody was aloud to divorce,so if you got married then you were married til’ death do you part.So the idea to end the family feud will turn out to only enhance it ten fold because they are both extremely miserable.

Romeo and Juliet first met each other at a party at the Capulets house. They fall in love with each other at the first sight without knowing that they are from families who hate each other, and when they do learn about it, it is too late. Juliet realizes that it was a mistake to fall in love with Romeo, because he is one of the people she should watch out for. He is her first and only love, but he is an enemy of her family. Lucky for Romeo, Juliet is smart, and such dumb thing as hate between their parents wouldn't stop her from loving Romeo and getting married with him. She is sorry that their families are enemies, though, because everything would be much easier if they weren't. So this is the first time when the hate between Capulets and Montagues becomes problem to Romeo and Juliets happiness. Only after their children die, the Montagues and Capulets come to their senses. The Prince accuses them of killing Romeo and Juliet. The Prince makes them see how wrong they were all the time, that all because of their hate, because they couldn't let their children love each other, Romeo and Juliet died. After that, Capulets and Montagues decide to call it quits. No more fighting, and Montague even says that he will make a gold statue of Juliet, but what is that going to do? It is too late, nothing will bring them back. It is totally Capulets' and Montagues' fault that Romeo and Juliet died. If they didn't hate each other so much,

From the forcing of Juliet to marry Paris, to coming up with a plan for Juliet to be knocked out for quite some time, and sadly, the death of both Romeo and Juliet. Other issues occur in the world that's similar to what happened in the story of Romeo and Juliet. There is a phrase that is ¨death brings out the best and the worst in families.¨ This is true for the story of Romeo and Juliet because they both died, which is the only reason why the two families ended their feud. Who knows if the feud would have been broken if Romeo and Juliet didn't end up dying like they did. That shows that the two families had to go through a very sad event in order for them to realize that their feud is what actually caused it. They were too blindsighted to see that they were the ones who caused the tragic event. ¨First let me be clear about one thing—you are not alone. Not even close! So many people can relate to family fighting after a death. What’s the number one source of conflict? Belongings and money. As hard as it is for many of us to admit, countless families who never imagine there would be conflict over material things are suddenly overwhelmed by disagreement and power struggles.¨(What's your grief). This shows that this happens to families. They have to overcome a tragic event in order to realize something. Now if the Montagues and the Capulets hadn't had their feud,
