William Shakespeare 's Romeo And Juliet

Capulet could be the character to blame for the death of Romeo and Juliet, because he forced Juliet into marrying Paris. Capulet thinks that her marrying Paris will bring her happiness and plans a wedding for her. But when he informs Juliet about the wedding, she doesn't want to marry Paris. Capulet's response to this is, "Hang thee,

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.

William Shakespeare has written thirty-seven plays, one of his most known is Romeo and Juliet. Romeo and Juliet, the main characters, fall in love but, they are rivals. No one approved of their love and they committed suicide three days after they were married. Capulet is responsible for the downfall and death of Romeo and Juliet because he didn’t stop Tybalt from trying to kill Romeo and he kicked Juliet out of the house. Some may say it’s Benvolio’s fault but he did not have control over the chain of events, starting at the Capulet costume party.

Lord Capulet is responsible for Juliet’s death because he is verbally abusive. Lord Capulet has a high temper towards Juliet for her opinions . For example, As Lord Capulet enters Juliet’s room and hears that Juliet refuses to marry Paris his smile disappears and becomes angry and irritated. As Lord Capulet is yelling at Juliet for being ungrateful he says, “Speak not; reply not; do not answer me. My fingers itch” (3.5.169-170). Lord Capulet is telling Juliet to not say anything, such

Lord and Lady Capulet are responsible for Romeo and Juliet’s death. Lord Capulet does not want Juliet living in his house if she isn’t married to Paris.For example (3.5.216) “Graze where you will, you shall not house with me…”Lord Capulet told Juliet if she wasn’t married to Paris she will not stay in his home and Lord Capulet will disown her. She is threatened to lose her own home and family just because of not marrying Paris. This leads to her killing herself because if she can’t be with the one she loves and still live at home she thinks why live at all.Lord Capulet moved up the wedding which doesn’t work well with Friar Laurence’s plan.For instance (3.4.33) “Well go get you gone. A Thursday be it then.”This quote is saying that Lord Capulet

The first ones to be blamed for the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet are the people in the Capulet’s house because of the mistakes they made and how rough the men were. One reason why the Capulet house is responsible for the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet is because of their messenger. The messenger is accountable of their deaths because in the

Every aspect of the story has been praised throughout centuries, and it is regarded as one of the greatest literary masterpieces of all time. One of the most central plot points of the play is the waging feud between the Capulet and Montague families, a massive grudge that has lasted for generations and engulfs many aspects of each family’s lifestyle. There are numerous long-lasting effects of the feud that cannot be undone, such as the deaths of numerous

Day to day, we interact with our family. These interactions can have a great influence on our emotional and psychological responses, and can destroy an individual’s self-worth, build it up, or do both. In Romeo and Juliet, a play written by William Shakespeare, two lovers from enemy families embark on a journey toward their death marked tragedy. Juliet, the wife, happens to kick-start the disastrous outcome of the relationship by drinking a sleeping potion as part of a plan to escape her family’s desire for her to have a second marriage. However, a punishing misunderstanding forces the couple to suicide, thus being a result of both lovers being under heavy influence from members of their enemy families. Juliet, in

Plot: Starting in the city streets of Verona, two servants of the opposing houses fight. Though Benvolio (a Montague) tries to stop this, Tybalt (a Capulet) arrives and violence ensues. The Prince sees this and calls, “Hey, do this again and capital punishment will be involved.” Romeo, the emo son, of Lord Montague whines extraordinarily about his “love” (lust) for Rosaline. She is chaste and he wants her. Benvolio tells him, “Your crazy dude; its just one girl,” but typical teenage angst takes its course. In the Capulet household, Paris wants to marry Juliet, but Lord Capulet is all, “She’s too young… in a few years.” A Capulet servant who can’t read the guest list for the Capulet part has Romeo read it. Benvolio convince Romeo to go to this part to forget Rosaline. At the party, Romeo sees Juliet and falls in love. (Who’s Rosaline?) However, this time it’s mutual. Romeo doesn’t know who he loves till he asks the nurse (Juliet’s) who he kissed. Cue the teenage angst. Romeo and Juliet then take the balcony scene. (“Wherefore art thou Romeo…”) Here, the two are all I love you; let’s get married. Romeo and Juliet next go to Friar Lawrence and are all let’s get married secretly. Hopeful for a good resolution, the friar agrees and they are married. Romeo and friends encounter Tybalt who challenges him to a duel. Romeo is all we have a common love, but I can’t share. Mercutio doesn’t want peace and fights Tybalt. Tybalt stabs Mercutio,

1. He started the play by creating a blood feud between the family servants of Montague and Capulet both of the families servants. This gains the attention of the groundling because they probably able to relate between the feuds of the two noble houses.

The fourteen line I chose to annotate and perform is a monologue made by Romeo. This happens right after Romeo gets to Juliet’s grave, then meets Paris, fights Paris, and kills Paris.[a]Right before Paris dies, he says “Oh, I am slain! If thou be merciful, Open the tomb. Lay me with Juliet” (Shakespeare 5.3.72-73). Paris is brave and proud enough to tell Romeo, the person that kills him, to put him in the grave next to Juliet, who he was going to marry. Romeo’s true love for Juliet caused all of this in the first place. In the play, The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, William Shakespeare persuades the audience to see what can arise when love is at its pinnacle, that the true power of love can change the life of a person in an instant.[b] Romeo has mixed feelings standing next to Juliet at her grave, and he expresses them in weird ways. Romeo becomes confused after he gets a better look at the person who he had killed, he then only finds that it was Paris. In that hurry, Romeo is again confused, he thought that Balthasar had told him Paris was going to marry Juliet, then he says “Said he not so? Or did I dream it so?” (Shakespeare 5.3.79). Romeo is not sure of what he remembers. This whole event has been a lot on Romeo, and it is caused a slight mental breakdown. I wonder if Shakespeare is showing what love and tragedy can cause to a person, or what happens when you decide to die next to the person you loved and married.

Love can be defined in many ways to many different people. It can be affected by their past experience, a romance novel they’ve read, or a love between two individuals they look up to. To most people it’s something they strive to experience, no matter the obstacles, heartbreak, or baggage that comes with it. Not too long ago I read an article about whether love is a choice or more than a feeling and it really made me wonder; wonder how can we tell if it is true love and when we’re ready for it. It lead me to ask the question, did Romeo and Juliet really love each other? Or was it just a simple feeling of lust?

When discussing classic love stories, William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet is often included in the conversation. The tragic story of the “star-crossed lovers” (Shakespeare 6) is taught in high schools and studied in colleges. Its poetry has graced many stages and silver screens. Romeo and Juliet is also often reimagined for a modern audience. One such interpretation is West Side Story. Written by Stephen Sondheim, it made its Hollywood debut in 1961 under directors Jerome Robbins and Robert Wise. Instead of feuding families in Verona, West Side Story touts rival gangs in New York City. Although the plots of West Side Story and Romeo and Juliet themselves seem interchangeable, key differences exist that make West Side Story a

Throughout the long, tumultuous and famed play that greatly contributed to Shakespeare’s success, Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare features many characters that make less than mentally sound decisions. The titular characters, Romeo and Juliet, are often at the heart of this. The choices they make during the play reflect their inexperience and youth, and are often poorly thought out. While neither of them can really be described as mature, Romeo is far less levelheaded and dependable than Juliet. It is for these reasons that the belief that Juliet displayed more maturity than Romeo over the course of the play is justified: first, Juliet expresses a clear desire to take things slowly with Romeo, which stands in stark opposition of his brash impulsiveness. Second, Juliet is able to formulate a cohesive plan with Friar Laurence in order to reunite herself with Romeo, whereas Romeo once again acts recklessly when he was not informed (which was not Juliet’s error), and Juliet swallows her pride to appease her father and achieve this plan. Lastly, Romeo himself shows incredible immaturity and childishness in his decision to fight Tybalt, which does not involve avenging his friend Mercutio, but instead is because he wishes to regain the masculinity that has been softened by his spending time with Juliet. Because he fought for these petty reasons, Romeo was banished from Verona completely. These circumstances lead to both Romeo and Juliet’s deaths.
