Secondly, Lord Capulet was also a hasty character who throughout the play was too eager to marry his daughter to Paris and indirectly caused her betrayal and death. Initially, Paris told Lord Capulet that he wanted to marry Juliet as soon as possible. At first, Lord Capulet told him to wait but then changed his mind all of a sudden forcing his daughter to marry Paris “O' Thursday let it be: o' Thursday, tell her,she shall be married to this noble earl.”(Act 3,4) not thinking of his daughter’s feeling. When Juliet fake agreed on the marriage, Capulet moved the date a day sooner due to his excitement about her agreement “Send for the county. Go tell him of this.
Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare. Lord Capulet’s attitude and behavior toward Juliet change from Act 1 to Act 3 to Act 4 which shows how little he cares about Juliet and her feelings. In Act 1, Lord Capulet believes his daughter’s feelings are more important than his well-being. When Paris asks to marry Juliet, Lord Capulet wants to wait and consider Juliet’s feelings first.
In William Shakespeare’s play Romeo and Juliet there are many different forces to blame for the tragic deaths of Romeo Montague and Juliet Capulet. Some might say the haste of the young lovers is to blame, others might say it was the feud between the Montague and Capulet families that brought on the tragic deaths. I believe that it was the Capulet parents that are to blame. I feel this because they tried forcing Juliet into an arranged marriage while she was grieving the death of her cousin, they threatened to disown her if she didn’t follow through with the marriage, and nobody, not even the nurse, was there to comfort her and give her the help and advice she needed. In Romeo and Juliet, William Shakespeare presents the idea that love
Romeo and Juliet - Act 1 The scene is set at the capulet party. Romeo ended up there because him and Bevolio learned from Peter that Rosaline was going to be there. Benvolio wanted Romeo to go so that he could see that there are women that are more beautiful than her. Fate was already taking part because Romeo found out about this party and without this party, he never would have med Juliet, the love of his life.
Out on her, hilding!” (3.5 161-166). Capulet could have helped many characters live, but he let the conflict continue. However, his not listing is a problem, but because of his family's murders, Juliet has to keep everything a secret, as, in the balcony scene, Romeo has to leave early so the guards would not find him. If they did, he would be murdered as in this “If they do see thee, they will murder thee.”
Romeo decides to go to the party just to see Rosaline again and does not fully let it sink in that this is a Capulet
In the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet written by William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet are caught in the middle of two feuding families. Between the clash of the Capulets and Montagues, their protective confidants, and their never-ending love for each other, Romeo and Juliet take their own lives in the city of Verona. They may have taken their own lives but they were not the only ones who should be held accountable. Lady Capulet’s self-centeredness and untrustworthy actions towards Juliet eventually leads to the star-crossed lovers deaths.
Juliet Capulet is a young, innocent girl who lives in Verona, Italy. She wanted to please everyone, especially her parents, but as time went on, Juliet matured into a strong, woman who needed to make her own decisions and find happiness. In the play Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, Juliet matures from a child to a woman. Juliet used to obey the rules but now she follows her heart, she stayed loyal to the person she loved and she relied on everyone else, but now she makes her own decisions. First of all, Juliet matured into a woman throughout the play because she was scared to speak up for herself she soon learned that the best way to be happy was to make her own decisions.
Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare portray how carefree and naive Romeo, Juliet, and Lord capulet are. The actions of the three cause the tragic consequences of the play. Romeo’s rash and irresponsible actions contribute to the tragic consequences of the play because he let his impulse and hot-headedness guide him. In the beginning of Act II, Romeo decides not to join his friends leaving the Capulet party and instead goes back to the orchard in hopes of seeing Juliet again: “Can I go forward when my heart is here?/ Turn back dull earth and find thy center out” (2.1.1-2). Here, Romeo is the dull earth, and the center he wants to find is Juliet.
Socrate lived from 470-399 B. C. and died by the death penalty because his accusers did not like the way that he spoke of them. Socrates told the truth as he saw it, he knew he accusers to be evil men and they did not like this. Socrates accusers tried to silence him by the death penalty, but Socrates knew that there was no reason to lower himself to speak in their manner just to save his own life, because he was getting on in years and he would be at rest soon anyway. Socrates was sent to death for speaking his mind, he was not allowed the freedom of speech and he payed for it with his life.
People in relationships are like puzzle pieces, some of them fit and some do not. In the play Romeo and Juliet written by William Shakespeare, Juliet and her father, Lord Capulet are the puzzle pieces. The two family members have a complex family relationship. Throughout the play their relationship is tested. Lord Capulet wants the best for his daughter and has different opinions on Juliet's future compared to her own.
Juliet’s relationship with her father changed drastically throughout Acts 1-3 once he chooses his status over her feelings. In Act 1 he states, “She’s the hopeful lady of my earth”(1.2.15), Which shows that he loves her greatly. In contrast, later, Capulet calls her “young baggage, disobedient wretch”(3.5.166) when she refuses to marry Paris. This is because Capulet gets caught up in status and cares more about Juliet marrying ‘perfect’ Paris to gain status than Juliet herself. Building on this, Capulet decides in Act 3 that he alone should be in charge of who Juliet marries.
Her action indicates her leisurely personality. Moreover, in the wedding of Romeo and Juliet in the church, Juliet gracefully walks toward Romeo with a wedding dress, Romeo smiles at Juliet and wait gently, their expression and action make them look like engage in a real wedding as the real adult. Even though they are young lovers, they still know and respect the properties in front of the God statue. Furthermore, after Romeo seeks Juliet in Capulet’s house, they
The final scene uses a lot of close up shots to capture the emotions of Romeo and Juliet, we see a lot of anguish and hopelessness in Romeo’s face when he sees Juliet dead, and we see joy in her face when she first opens her eyes and sees Romeo, but that quickly morphs into shock and heartbreak when she sees him dying. The use of close up shots was very effective because it allowed the audience to really feel the emotions portrayed in the scene. A long shot was used in the inside of the church to capture all the interior details of the church. After they are both dead, an overhead shot is used to show them lying next to each other to symbolise their eternal love and peace in each other. In the Great Gatsby, we see a long panning shot of his house, and the lake to show how abandoned it looks.
Shakespeare probably deliberately presented her this way, where she fits into what is expected of young ladies so that her change in character throughout the play would be more dramatic and interesting. Juliet is presented as a conformist at the beginning and her importance is highly emphasised. She is not very close to her mother, which was usual in those times. In the fist scene where Juliet and Lady Capulet interact we can already sense their distant relationship,
