Out of all the people in Romeo & Juliet, who do you think carries the most blame for Romeo & Juliet’s untimely deaths? Some people argue that the most to blame was Friar Lawrence, while others believe it was the Servant. However, after reading the story, it is evident that the person to blame was Mercutio because he persuaded Romeo to go to the party, pushed Tybalt to fight him, and cursed both households. First, Mercutio carries most blame for Romeo & Juliet’s untimely deaths because he persuaded Romeo to go to the Capulet party and in turn, caused Romeo to meet Juliet. For instance, use the following quote from Mercutio (Shakespeare, RJ, 1.4). 17-18), “You are a lover, borrow Cupids wings & soar with them above a common bound.” Mercutio is gently taunting Romeo about his mood and ideas of love.
