Imagine if you were walking down the aisle on your wedding day which is meant to be the best day ever, but the person at the end is a stranger. How would you like if the day you have been waiting all your life is just practically handed to you and isn’t even what you wanted or who you wanted to be with. Well, this is actually how some people’s lives happen for them. Such as they have no say in who they marry because their parents are in control of it all. In Romeo and Juliet this is the same situation that Juliet and Paris went through in the story. Like how Juliet's parents wanted her to marry Paris at the age of fourteen. Juliet's family was for arranging marriage since they were arranged when they got married, but on the other hand Juliet was very against the whole idea of marrying at fourteen, especially since she was very in love with Romeo even though their two families hated each other. This caused a lot of problems with Juliet’s family and that she would have to

This is a big deal when things are arranged for people even though some people don’t see it. For example, Tim Arango stated, “I tried to kill myself, she said. I did not want to get married. I was forced to get engaged” (Arango). This is showing how the amount of stress put on people can have severe endings leading to death. In like manner Arango also stated that, “Officials are alarmed by what they described as a worsening epidemic of suicides, particularly among young women tormented by being forced to marry to young, to someone they do not love”. So even though some people do realize the amount of stress put on people it is still necessary that everyone needs to realize what could happen if you force something to happen when it’s not meant to be. It’s clear now that if you are doing this to someone that you could have more severe things happen that you need to keep in

2. Juliet was unaware that Romeo was nearby, and she expressed her feelings about Romeo out loud. She told Romeo that “deny thy father”(2.2 Line 37) and “refuse thy name”(2. 2 Line 37), and you will no longer be considered to be a “Capulet”(2.2 Line 39). She was doing a love test on him if Romeo will do that for her.

Have you ever read the poem “Romeo and Juliet”? Romeo and Juliet is a poem about two lovers from two different worlds and family’s. In the end the couple both took their own lives, in result of a deep sleep and a heartbroken husband. I believe that this was because of a man named Friar Lawrence.
Juliet tilts her head to the side and ponders over the extremely general question. "Ice cream," She decides after a short moment of pause. "I want a strawberry and vanilla cone with a lot of sprinkles on top."
Journal: I was always the innocent one. These two girls always wanted me to be on one of their side and against the other. There friendship was on and off. One girl would pull me away from the other.

There he was, lying in agony in the dark and weary night, next to his beloved's tomb in the ominous cemetery. Seeing the vile creature, Death, take away her soul from his hands. Death insisted to come with him with his hands filled with the white bones of the dead, he came along without hesitation. The well-known tragedy, Romeo, and Juliet by William Shakespeare was a transcendent illustration of the effects of the underdeveloped adolescent brain. The two star-crossed lovers had their destiny planned in front of them. The tragic and mournful deaths of Romeo and Juliet resulted from their impromptu love taking over their everyday lives. Romeo laid on the murky ground of the cemetery, weeping in front of the tomb of Juliet and he would soon kill
Simile (balcony scene): O, speak again, bright angle! For thou art As glorious to this night, being o’er my head, As a winged messenger of heaven (Rom. 2. 2. 26-28). Juliet is compared to a winged messenger of heaven. Given that the comparison uses the word "as," this comparison is a simile.
1. Aside- a dialogue of a character that is spoken out loud, but is not heard by the other characters and is usually intended for the audience to know more about the plot.
My thesis is the parents were against Romeo and Juliet’s love. Romeo and Juliet are from feuding families, therefore not allowed to see one another. Juliet’s father has control over her, and decides when and who she will marry. Juliet is told she will marry Paris, not Romeo, though she already has married Romeo. Romeo and Juliet eventually end up killing one another for their love.
Romeo and Juliet is a story based on conflict. The conflict in the story is Capulet against Montague. From ancient times, the two families have held grudges against each other. As the book states. “Two households, alike in dignity...from ancient grudge break to new mutiny. Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean (1.Prologue.1-4).” The grudge between the two families has led to fighting and even death.
Shakespeare does this by noting how Romeo and Juliet do not actually love each other. This is represented by Romeo and Juliets actions and rash decision making. Their decisions are very impulsive and rushed. As a result, it impacted them negatively in the future and as well as their relationship. Romeo and Juliet’s love for each other is not actually how love really is. They’ve mistakenly confused lust for love.
The play of Romeo and Juliet is different from William Shakespeare’s other tragedies in that there is not a clear distinction of individual heroes. The two protagonists are more passive than active; both are naïve and lacking understanding. The hero is often thought to be the romantic, yet often hysterical, Romeo. But Romeo’s immoral background, emotional outbursts, mishap murders, and foolish actions make him a poor candidate for a hero. Juliet proves to be more innocent than Romeo because she possesses more rigorous moral ethics. Juliet is also more successful in overcoming the obstacles that she is faced with throughout the play. While both characters
William Shakespeare is widely known for all of his literary works; one of his most famous love tragedies being 'Romeo and Juliet'. A Shakespearean definition of tragedy exemplifies the sense that human beings are inevitably doomed through their own failures or errors, the ironic action of their virtues, or even through the nature of fate and destiny (Sayour, Susan, 2007). Romeo and Juliet is a tragic tale based on two young star-crossed lovers whose deaths ultimately unite their feuding families. Throughout the play, Shakespeare intentionally draws on text structures and language features in order to replicate the attitudes, values and beliefs of Elizabethan audiences and intertwine it into his
“Love always overcomes hate, but love’s effects and hate’s effects are no different in magnitude.” -Anonymous. No one ever doubts the power of love or the power of hate. For as long as time has existed people have loved and people have hated. Strong emotions persuade everyone to act on their inhibition. Everyone wants to be a hero in every situation whether it be trying to save someone or the simple act of finding a winning lottery ticket. These actions are what lead to love overcoming hate even if they are the simplest of acts. The mistake people make is them trying to hard to be the hero. This leads to one traveling great lengths to achieve their goals, but at what cost. Throughout Shakespeare’s most famous play, Romeo and Juliet, his main
