Who Was The Friar Responsible For The Deaths Of Romeo And Juliet

It is evident, through much consideration, Friar Laurance is at fault for the death of the Star Cross’d lovers of Romeo and Juliet. Throughout Verona, he is known as the “Wise Advisor”, and a member of the “Order of St. Francis” church group.
Now, this gives him a sense of authority, a trusted adult, someone people go to for their problems in hope for solutions. He was whom Romeo and Juliet confided in. However, the Friar was foolish in a number of ways:
He failed pursue The Divine Order of Elizabethan England, he also ignored the hatred between the opposing families and was hasty, immature and impulsive, and did not ensure Romeo was informed about Juliet’s fake passing until it was to late.

Firstly, The Divine Chain of order was vastly

The Capulets hosted a feast, organising the official meeting of Juliet and Paris;
Much to the Capulets disgrace, the Montagues attended the party where Romeo came face-to-face with Juliet and immediately and impulsively fell in ‘love’
Within that night, Romeo and Juliet confessed their ‘love’ for each other, and Romeo confronted Friar Laurance, and he thoughtlessly agreed to marry them the next day. It is beyond apparent that Friar Laurance is at fault because he didn’t not speak to Romeo and Juliet about upsetting The Divine Order of Elizabethan Society. It was irrational to believe that marrying the couple would benefit the society; the families despised each other.
Although the Friar stated that he thought the marriage would solve feuding problems within the opposing families, he was irrational to consider that it would resolve in immediate peace. But “What is but a name?” Juliet argued.
She was free-spirited and rebellious, and also that she would kill herself if she were to marry another man. The friar took the easy way out; he wedded the couple, instead of attempting to reason with Romeo, and

It is not known what started the feuding fights, but both Montague and Capulets have been threatened their life if they disrupt the society yet again.
The hatred between families was obvious and known of throughout Verona, “My only love, sprang from my only hate” yet another extract of what Juliet said.
Now, Lord Capulet had put Juliet under ultimate stress for her to marry Paris, as I said before. The wedding was arranged for a week time. Juliet felt she had no choice, and yet she confided in the Friar about wanting an escape plan. This again, is where to Friar is at fault. He supplied Juliet with a poison to make her appear dead for 48 hours, and have a letter delivered to Romeo saying it was an escape plan, arranging for him to unbury her from her tomb, so they could run away and be together.
As a priest and pacemaker, you think something along those lines would resolve in a cease-fire, but not to this extent. The Friar was reckless, idiotic and irrational.

Would you tell someone to fake their death just so they could marry a person that they’ve known for one
