“If you fear nothing, then you are not brave. You are merely to foolish to be afraid.” (Laurell Hamilton). This quote goes perfectly with how Romeo and Juliet came to die. Foolishness is at fault for the death of Romeo and Juliet because of their foolish outbreaks, foolish handling of their relationship and their foolish acts.
In Romeo and Juliet, the motif haste controls all the events in the story. Haste also drives the characters to make mistakes because they aren’t thinking through the outcome of their decisions. When Romeo and Juliet first meet at the party they hastily started making plans to get married. In the next few days, they got married. At their secret wedding, Friar Lawrence foreshadows Romeo and Juliet's future by stating that “These violent delights have violent ends.
Friar Lawrence and the Nurse are foil characters because the Friar is educated but the Nurse is not, the Nurse is practical but the Friar is idealistic, and the Friar is very thoughtful but the Nurse is crude. The Friar is shown to be educated
“Wisely and slow; they stumble that run fast.” (Romeo and Juliet, Act II, iii, 97). A famous quote spoken by Friar Lawrence in the play of Romeo and Juliet by Shakespeare, isn’t any ordinary quote. Behind these words truth is hidden in the life of Romeo, Juliet, and for the play. Due to Romeo’s stubbornness, he ignored Friar Lawrence's advice, causing deaths, secrets, duels of love, and broken hearts.
How Shakespeare presents Juliet as an emotional girl Intro: One way Shakespeare presents Juliet as a female with strong emotions is by using Oxymorons. This idea shows that she has strong conflicting emotions since she is constantly doubting herself. An example of this is when she said: “Beautiful tyrant, fiend angelical.” Here you can see that she uses the words “beautiful” and “tyrant” to refer to Romeo, which are both contradicting themselves; she does this again using the words fiend angelical. This shows that she is confused on how to feel about Romeo since he has just killed her cousin.
Immaturity can spread throughout things and people creating problems for the present and future. Similarly, Romeo and Juliet not only shows the development of love, but the development of immaturity that leads to the story being tragic. Often humans develop to become mature, but the totalness of immaturity in this story, makes the process go backwards. From Romeo and Juliet’s fast evolving relationship to the hate between the two family’s, the ignorance of thought in different characters is portrayed well in the story. Therefore, the theme of this sad story is to think more diligently and reasonably before taking action, and overall grow from the past.
If you were challenged to a duel by you cousin what would you do? Well Romeo felt this when Tybalt Romeo’s new hateful, bold, and demanding cousin challenged him to a duel. Tybalt Juliet's cousin from Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet is all and more of these words used to describe him. And Tybalt is a hateful, bold, and demanding character that love nothing more than to see Romeo killed. Tybalt is an insanely hateful character especially towards Romeo and his household.
What is the relationship between circumstances and that which is just? A personś circumstances are better the more justly they are treated. Sometimes poor circumstances can make somebody do unjust things. This was demonstrated in both Romeo and Juliet and Animal Farm.
In Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, Tybalt is at the most of Mercutio’s death because of his explosive personality and temper, which led to him acting without thinking. In act 3 Scene 1, a tragic and dramatic fight takes place, where Mercutio was struck by Tybalt and as a result, died. This fight came to be because Tybalt came up to Romeo demanding a duel for he was at a Capulet ball. Romeo, being married to Tybalt’s in-law tries to avoid the conflict when Tybalt states “Romeo, the love I bear thee can afford No better term than this: thou art a villain” (3.1.61-62)
In Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare the story shows that love/hate cannot be controlled. Love is a powerful emotion that can possessively take over anyone and hate is a rage of aggression that can take over anybody in a matter of seconds, love and hate is a feeling of emotion which brings out character. In the quote this demonstrates that Juliet is now in love with her so-called enemy and she stated that her only love that she wants to be with was once her only hate, and now she must love a loathed enemy, even if there is a family feud. ¨My only love sprung from my only hate! Too early seen unknown, and known too late!
Many reasons led up to the deaths of the star-crossed lovers in William Shakespeare's “The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet”. In The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, there are two main powers, the Capulets and the Montagues, Juliet belongs to the Capulets and Romeo is a Montague. The difference in powers (the Capulets and the Montagues) will make a difficult problem for both sides. These different powers could be blamed for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet. Fate can be blamed for the deaths of the star-crossed lovers because of the feud that has gone on between the two families for many years.
Fake Love There is a difference between love and infatuation. In the Play Romeo and Juliet, Romeo claims Juliet is the woman he is helplessly in love with and is destined to be with. Although he may think that he loves her, his desire is captivated by her looks. Throughout the play, it becomes more obvious through Romeo's words, history, and knowledge that he does not know the loyalty of love. “Young men’s love then lies not truly in their hearts, but in their eyes” (Act 2, Scene 3, Lines 67-68)
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.
In every Shakespeare play there is always tragic hero. In the play Romeo and Juliet, Romeo is a tragic hero that sacrifices his life for his love for Juliet. Romeo is a tragic hero in my eyes because his family is very wealthy and has a high status. His downfall was mostly his fault. Lastly the fall of Romeo and Juliet was not pure loss because the feud between the families ended.
