Lifelong feuds, poison, fights, death, and who is to blame, well let's find out! He was impulsive and didn’t think before he made a decision. He also didn’t know what love was, but he thought he did. Lastly, he went places he knew he shouldn’t have been at. Therefore, Romeo, in William Shakespeare's world renewed plays’ “Romeo and Juliet,” is to blame for most of the deaths and fighting. First of all, Romeo thought he fell in love with a girl named Rosaline .Then he started crying because she didn’t like him, and his friends wanted to cheer him up so they suggested to go to the Capulet party. It states that Benvolio says,” At this ancient feast of Capulet’s sups the fair Rosaline whom thou so loves; with all the admired beauties of Verona. Go thither, and with unattainted eye compare her with some that I shall show, and I will make thee think thy swan a crow”(i 84-89). He met Juliet and that was when he forgot about Rosaline and thought he was in love with Juliet now. He flirted with her and gave her a palmers kiss, then a real one making her think she was in love too. Romeo says,”Then move not while my prayer’s effect I take. Thus from my lips, be thine my sin is purged.” [ kisses her.](i 105-106). Juliet then says,” My only love, sprung from my only hate! Too early seen unknown, and known too late! Prodigious birth of love it is to me that I must love a loathed enemy.”(i 137-140).Then, when Romeo leaves Juliet , Lord Capulet’s nephew, Tybalt recognizes Romeo’s voice
To begin with to the statement made earlier about the claim that the Montague's and Capulet's were responsible for the death of their children. If both families didn’t have an ancient grudge bot4h of the children wouldn’t have died. The both families had an ongoing grudge that didn’t allow them to be married to one family to the other. In document A, “Two Households”, it states in the third line “From ancient grudge break to new mutiny.” Proving that both families had or have a grudge and that made the turn into a war. Making both households have a fight. Finally, if anyone had any contact with the opposing family they will be killed probably making Romeo and Juliet very scared to be together.
Have you ever blamed faith for things, without looking at the human actions? In this DBQ we will discuss about some of the human's actions ,in the “Romeo and Juliet” story by Shakespeare, that led to the poor death of Romeo and Juliet. Romeo and Juliet’s death was caused by human actions because of four people: Rosaline, the Friar Lawrence, the Caplet and the Montague. Romeo and Juliet’s death was caused by Rosaline. If Rosaline would have fell in love with Romeo and not have been so stubborn then Romeo wouldn't have been sad at the beginning (Act 1, scene 1-5).
Like in our world today we like to assign blame to someone's faults, that’s what is happening here. Who is to blame for the six deaths in Romeo and Juliet. The families, the Capulets and the Montagues because of their feud. Romeo and Juliet because of their stubborness, impatience and stupidity and then the Nurse. For not telling somebody before the problem got worse.
Romeo and Juliet is a very tragic story of two young teens who fall in love, but in the end, they die because their love is forbidden. Many people ask, “Who is to blame for their deaths?” Many people caused problems that just caused even more problems. The tragedy of Romeo and Juliet’s unfortunate deaths could have been prevented if it weren't for a few people. The people responsible for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet are the families at the start of the feud, Lord Capulet’s servant, and Tybalt.
Whenever a problem occurs, there is always someone to take the blame, whether it be a war between two countries or an argument between siblings. In the play, The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, by William Shakespeare, it is no different. This story shows tragedy after tragedy and focuses on the tragic events that led the lovers to their deaths. However, there is much controversy surrounding who is to blame for the tragedies that took place. Some say that their families caused the deaths, while others say their counselor and mentor, Friar lawrence, is to blame since he married the two despite the potential consequences. Based on the facts, Romeo is to blame for all the tragedies that took place. Romeo acted infatuatedly, vengefully, and impulsively throughout this play, causing him to produce many tragedies along the way.
William Shakespeare was an English poet and playwright, widely known for being the greatest writer in the english language (William Shakespeare par. 1). William Shakespeare’s play, Romeo and Juliet tells the story between two star crossed lovers, who fall in love despite their families hating each other. The Capulet’s are to blame for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet because of the feud between the two families, misunderstanding Juliet’s feelings, and the urge to punish Romeo for Tybalt’s death.
Blaming is a common thing done among human errors. As soon as something begins to go wrong, we want to start pointing fingers at someone other than ourselves. In the case of Romeo and Juliet, many things go terribly wrong and many people could be up to blame. I narrowed all the choices down to the top three people, that in my opinion, caused all of the problems. I blame Juliet, Friar Lawrence, and Romeo.
There are three characters in the story of Romeo and Juliet that take some and most of the blame on the death of the two Romeo and Juliet. Two of the characters take some of the blame while the third character takes all of the blame. The two characters that take some of the blame are Lady Capulet And Lord Capulet. Lady Capulet is married to Lord Capulet and have a daughter named Juliet. The third person that takes most of the blame for their death is not a person at all. It is fate. These three characters are the reason why Romeo and Juliet take their lives. ("DBQ: Romeo and Juliet: Who's to Blame". Doc.B,A,D)
Should one of Shakespeare 's most famous plays, Romeo, and Juliet, be removed from the freshman English curriculum? Romeo and Juliet was written by William Shakespeare and is a tragic play about two star-crossed lovers. Romeo and Juliet, the two main character, deny their family’s feud and choose to fall in love, but the choices they let others and themselves make lead to their untimely death. The classic play was written in mostly sonnets, a form of poetry and contains most of the English literature devices like figurative language, foreshadowing, imagery, etc... Also, Romeo and Juliet has part of the English curriculum for decades. Romeo and Juliet should still be part of Niles West learning curriculum since it’s still relevant because
Romeo and Juliet were facing many obstacles during the time they first encountered one another. Their, so-called, “love” sprung as they were both trying to escape from their present problems. Romeo was previously in love with a beautiful girl named Rosaline, although she couldn’t love him back and fulfill Romeo’s sexual desires because she was becoming a nun. He was heartbroken when he found out about this, and thus, he was left inconsolable. Once he discovered that Rosaline was attending the Capulet ball, he decided to sneak in. Minutes into the ball, Romeo sees Juliet and immediately professes his love for her. Juliet also had her own dilemmas to deal with. Some of which included being forced into marrying Paris, a man whom she did not love. Therefore, her love for Romeo was influenced by her reluctance to marry Paris. Prior to Romeo and Juliet’s encounter at the Capulet party, Juliet comments on marriage stating, “It is an honor that I dream not of,” (1.3.68). This quote shows that Juliet had no interest in getting married anytime soon, although when she meets
In Romeo and Juliet, Romeo is very upset because he loves someone, but she does not love him back. He describes her as,”She’ll not be hit with Cupid’s arrow. She has Dian’s wit(1.1.217)” This shows that he thinks she is not willing to fall in love; I think that this means that she wants to be chased. He is explaining to his cousin Benvolio that,”Alas that love, whose view is muffled still/ Should without eyes see the pathways to his will!(1.1.176)”
In the beginning Romeo goes to the Capulet’s party to see Rosaline and changes his love for Rosaline. In Act I, scene 2, Benvolio told Romeo “At this same ancient feast of Capulet's / Sups the fair Rosaline whom thou so lovest (1.2.82-83)”.
Father and mother, if you're reading this it means that i ran away and in hiding from the police after my terrible actions. I love both of you guys but i have been keeping a secret from you guys. I want you to approve me marrying Juliet. I want to marry Juliet because she has everything that I need and she is from a very wealthy family.
William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet is centered around the tragic story of two “star-cross’d lovers”. A tragedy is a dramatic story that chronicles the downfall or death of a tragic hero. Tragedies usually depict the causes of a tragic hero’s downfall, which are most commonly a tragic choice or a tragic flaw. There is often some sort of greater power at play in tragedies, like fate. A key aspect of tragedies is both fate and free will leading to the downfall of a tragic hero. In William Shakespeare’s The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, Romeo and Juliet’s immaturity, the feud between the houses Capulet and Montague, and fate cause the deaths of the two young lovers.
