Romeos and Juliets Death Romeo and Juliet is a tragic play about two love-struck teens that eventually falls in love. They have to face obstacles just to find a way to be together and eventually have to secrednize their marriage. The characters Friar Lawrence, Romeo and Lord, Lady Capulet are primarily responsible for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet. They all have things they did that leads to Romeo and Juliet’s departness. Also, the decisions they made and the problems they caused such as ruining true love.
Juliet Capulet is guilty for her’s and Romeo’s deaths because she knows the consequences of being with a Montague, yet continues to pursue their relationship. Some people believe Juliet is naive and in love, but she is smart enough to realize what she is doing is a bad thing. At this moment in their relationship, Romeo and Juliet are head over heels for each other; they have chosen to be married by Friar Lawrence which is forbidden due to their families unpleasant feud (Logos). As Juliet is on the balcony, she is unaware that Romeo is hiding in the bushes while she exclaims, “O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo?/ Deny thy father and refuse thy name!/
“She shall be married to this noble earl” (III.IV.21). Capulet wants Juliet to marry Paris in hopes of relieving her grief. However, Juliet is quite opposed to the
Capulet’s dominant demeanor over his daughter can be shown when he speaks to Paris about marrying Juliet, “I think she will be ruled in all respects by me. Nay, more, I doubt it not.” (3.14.13). Capulet stated that Juliet will do whatever he says because he is her father. Capulets idea of having Juliet marry Paris is one that although forced, is because he believes Paris would be the best husband his daughter.
Juliet marries Romeo. Friar Lawrence, and Juliet’s most trusted advisor, the Nurse, are the only ones who know. Lord Capulet is planning a secret wedding between Juliet and Paris, which Juliet did not want. Juliet did tell her mother of her reasons why she did not want to marry Paris, but Lady Capulet dismissed it, feeling ashamed saying “Talk not to me, for I’ll not speak a word. / Do as thou wilt, for I have done with thee” (3.5. 214-215).
Juliet: 1 It's only your name that is my enemy 2 Even if you aren't a Montague, you are yourself. You are who you are. 3 What is a Montague?
Even the Nurse who previously encouraged the romance between Juliet and Romeo, changes her mind and says she should marry Paris. Juliet's rebellion has serious repercussions which leads her to commit suicde over her
In the beginning, he allows Juliet to willingly be with Paris which is a stark contrast to when he becomes angry and tells Juliet she has no choice. This leads to Juliet wanting to die rather than marry a person she does not love. Juliet is determined to stay true to Romeo. Her willingness to die shows that she is deeply in love with Romeo.
(Act 1, Scene 3). Even when the nurse states that she raised Juliet from a little baby and that one day she would hope to see her get married. Lady Capulet still manages to make it work for her and then she suggests that it was exactly what she wanted to discuss. She wanted to know what Juliet’s attitude was towards marriage.
Lady Capulet ignores her daughter’s desperate pleas to say who she actually wanted to marry. After Juliet learns that she will be forced to marry Paris, she exclaims, “Delay this marriage for a month, a week. Or, if you do not, make the bridal bed in that dim monument where Tybalt lies.” (Act 3.Scene 5.page 9) Juliet would rather die than to be married to Paris.
In Act 1, Scene 3, Juliet obeys her mother and listens to what she has to say to her. She cares that her mother thinks well of her and wants to make her happy. There is a big change in that characteristic. In Act 3, Scene 5, she has a big argument with Lord and Lady Capulet about marrying Paris. She firmly tells her parents that she will not marry him and for that Lord Capulet says he will disown her if she dares to make such a decision.
Even though Lady Capulet and the Nurse are excited about the pursuit of such a distinguished suitor, Juliet replies that she will meet him only to see if she is interested but doesn't promise she will like him. It is agreed that Juliet will formally meet Paris at the party thrown by her parents that evening. Over Before it Began
Most teens need a good role model in their life and a trusted adult to talk to about important situations. Just like in Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, Romeo gets to have Friar Lawrence there for him in important situations. Romeo does not feel comfortable talking to his family about serious things, so he goes to a trusted adult to talk to. Through the use of repetition of allusion, foreshadowing to the end of Romeo’s life, and personification of Romeo’s feelings, Shakespeare shows that Romeo and Friar Lawrence have a relationship full of love, friendship, and trust.
This is a fact that a multilingual person enjoys pleasures of life more than a person who speaks only one or two languages and English has the highest priority. English carries certain features and it has a great portfolio of literature. In The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, William Shakespeare uses a simile to portray Romeo’s amazement and wonder at Juliet’s beauty: “O, she doth teach the torches to burn bright! / Her beauty hangs upon the cheek of night, / Like a rich jewel in an Ethiop’s ear.” In this simile, Romeo is beginning the motif of light vs. darkness, where Juliet is always a spotless shining light, and everything becomes dark and shady around her.
