More Than One Cause of Death of Romeo and Juliet
Introduction
============
The story is basically about 2 teenagers who fall in love, but cannot
be with each other because their families despise each other. Juliet's
father finds her a husband but Juliet does not want to marry him, so
she marries Romeo and pretend to be dead, so the family doesn't think
she's alive and can't marry Paris. Romeo thinks she is really dead,
and when he sees her body he kills him self. Soon as the medicine
wears off and Juliet awakens and sees her husband Romeo dead by her
side she stabs her self, so they both die and hope to be together in
their next life. Who drove them to do this…?
In my opinion there are many causes of the reasons of death of the
teenagers, Romeo and Juliet. The way Shakespeare reveals there was
more than one cause, was the language he uses to describe the feud
between the Montages and Capulets. He also wrote about how the nurse
and Friar knowing were wrong. He talks about the disobey of the
parents and how they should've proved their love to try and make them
understand.
Shakespeare opens the play with the Montague and Capulet boys
fighting, showing that he wants the readers to understand how strong
the hate between the two families are. The first scene of the play
consists of Tybalt shouting, "Talk of peace? I hate the word!"
The deep amount of secrets in the play causes a lot of mind mystery
which makes you think about whether the deaths of Romeo and Juliet
were their own, or whether it was the fault of someone else.
The feud
The feud is the reason Romeo and Juliet can't be together in peace,
and have to lie and sneak around. If both the families had ended the
feud then non-of this would be taking place. But because Romeo and
Juliet had to lie and go behind their family's back drove them to
death.

The Reasons Behind the Deaths of Romeo and Juliet "From forth the fatal loins of these to foes A pair of star-crossed lovers take their life; Whose misadventured piteous overthrows Doth with their death bury their parent's strife. " From the opening scenes of the play it is made clear that these two children of the feuding families were destined to fall in love and eventually die together, but was it the actions of their friends that brought about their deaths or could it be that their deaths were just inevitable? Most people choose to believe that they have a sense of responsibility and can control their own lives; they suppose that their problems are caused by their own actions or by those influencing them. In my opinion though, Romeo and Juliet had no control what so ever, fate brought them together - their lives were already mapped out for them and there was nothing to impair this.

In William Shakespeare’s The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, who is to blame for the two lovers’ double suicide? Contrary to what many people think, the answer is not as obvious as it seems. Everyone knows the story of Romeo and Juliet: feuding families, forbidden love, and foretold death. But without reading the text entirely, it is difficult to comprehend who is ultimately responsible. By examining the impulsive actions of certain key characters and analyzing the circumstances surrounding the young couple, it became clear that there are multiple people to blame for Romeo and Juliet’s death.
I believe the father is at fault for Juliet’s death. I believe her father is responsible for her death because of the never ending feud he had with the Montagues, he forced her to marry someone she did not want to, and he changed the date of the wedding. Because of her father always fighting with the Montagues, Juliet was not able to marry Romeo, the person she actually loved. If the families would have not been fighting, they most likely would have let them marry each other since they are both rich. Another reason why he caused the death of his own daughter is by forcing her to marry someone she did not know. Juliet practically begs her father to not make her marry Paris but he refuses. Since Juliet is being forced to marry Paris, she drinks
