Romeo and Juliet is a story about two fated lovers who fell in love unexpectedly and faced many challenges but could not be together in the end and died next to one another. Although some people argue that Friar Lawrence is to blame, Romeo and Juliet are to blame for the tragic deaths. Their unthoughtful and rash actions create many challenges that they have to deal with and eventually lead to their downfall, causing their deaths. Romeo is a major player in his and Juliet’s deaths; his behavior and his actions are some of the main causes that lead to his and Juliet’s deaths. Romeo acts hastily, is driven by emotions, and does not consider checking in with someone trusted for complete information.
Fate was the fundamental factor that led to the suicides of Romeo and Juliet. It is present throughout the entire play, setting the scene for the tragic events to take place. Two scenarios which show that fate played an imperative role in Romeo and Juliet’s deaths are when Romeo read the ball invite which was addressed to someone else and when Friar John had to stop while delivering Friar Lawrence’s message resulting in Balthasar reaching Romeo first. The first scenario is seen in the text where a servant of the Capulet family
The lives of two lovers are placed in the hands of one man- in which everything falls apart. Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy by William Shakespeare about a husband and wife destined to die by the faults of others. The person at the center of these faults is Friar Lawrence, because he made many careless decisions. The first he makes is when he marries Romeo and Juliet. The next is when he creates the plan to save Juliet from marrying Paris, which inevitably fails. The final is when he leaves Juliet in the tomb with her deceased husband. Friar Lawrence is the most responsible for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet because of his careless decisions.
Two lovers, whose death brought both misery and peace, take part in a long-lasting feud between two families. Although blame could be assigned to everyone, four people and fate are the most accountable for blame. Fate has destined both Romeo and Juliet to take their lives and bring new mutiny, but will ultimately end an ancient grudge between two dignified families. Both Romeo and Juliet are to blame for being impulsive, reckless, and for acting like “normal” teenagers. The Capulet parents are also appointed blame for not providing support, choosing honor over Juliet, and pushing a marriage onto their daughter.
Most of Shakespeare's plays are conceived around a foundation in either tragedy or comedy, this polarity of themes allowing him to experiment with the full range of human emotions. Typically, an integral part of a Shakespearean tragedy is love, which is frustrated by a breakdown in order, or the character of the hero, due to some human limitation. The play Romeo and Juliet has all these typical characteristics. However, the resultant conclusion of events for the characters in this tragedy is adversely affected by the hands of fate, and not solely the product of human limitations. Fate in fact has a decisive role in the events of the play; it is a series of rapid coincidental events, which lead to the final tragedy.
“The best-laid plans of mice and men often go awry.” This quote from the poem To a Mouse by Robert Burns is iconic and truthful. The quote is trying to tell the reader, that even when someone has the most intricate, well thought out plan possible, anything can still go wrong. A perfect example of this occurs in the classic play Romeo and Juliet; two teenagers struck by Cupid’s arrow are forbidden to be together due to a family feud. The love these two teenagers have for one another is so strong they demand to be together and develop an incredibly sophisticated plan to do so. In this heart-wrenching Shakespearean play, Romeo and Juliet’s plan does indeed “go awry” and fate is to blame for the death of these two young lovers.
Romeo, Juliet, and fate are to blame because Romeo is gets depressed easily, he is emotional and not realistic. Juliet is to blame for the reason of being reasonable in the beginning of the story, then towards the end, she becomes very unreasonable. And fate is to blame because the plague was going around when the messengers were supposed to deliver the message to Romeo. This shows how Shakespeare is trying to say fate can't be changed by incorporating these things into the story that prevent Romeo and Juliet to be together.
