“Here's much do do with hate” shows once again the hate. The grudge between the monomers and
Since Lord Capulet and Lord Montague are in an unnecessary feud, Mercutio, Romeo, and Juliet have all lost their lives. This theme is important to the story because the unnecessary fighting is causing many casualties, and disturbing the peace of Verona. If the feud never existed, then Verona would have order, and the six people who died would still be alive. This fighting is the driving force between all of the negative events in the play.
While reading Shakespeare's play “Romeo and Juliet” it is easy to see that everybody in the story is at fault for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet. Personally however, I believe that three of the main characters are more at fault then the other characters. First is Mercutio, Romeo’s best friend. Next is Benvolio, nephew of Lord Montague and Romeo’s other friend. Last is Friar Lawrence, Romeo and Juliet Franciscan Priest. In a story of unorthodox love, family feuding, and violence, many are at blame for the deaths.
To begin, in the play Romeo and Juliet, William Shakespeare makes a point in emphasizing the feud between the Montagues and Capulets. The feud shows how they are all just living in the moment and not thinking about how this feud could affect others living presently and also in the future. They are not thinking rationally but instead are stuck on the fact that they both think they are better than one another. This makes them think they can not talk to one another or be nice but instead just pretend they don't exist. In the future, they may actually
The feud meant that they had to keep their relationship under wraps and tip-toe around their families. The ancient grudge between the two families meant that if one member of either family found out about Romeo and Juliet then they would be killed, ‘If they do see thee, they will murder thee.’ The family feud between the Montague and Capulet families could also be held responsible for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet because they both grew up with people dieing within the families because of the grudge. For instance Mercutio and Tybalt, Mercutio was a very loyal friend of Romeo’s and Tybalt was Juliet’s cousin. The deaths of these characters meant that Romeo and Juliet were both distressed and unhappy, and thus could have given more reason to their own deaths, ‘ A’ Thursday let it be, a’ Thursday, tell her,
The family feud between the Montagues and Capulets have been a long lasting war ig the families. This can be shown in the short story,Romeo and Juliet, in the prologue lines 1-4, “...a long stranded hatred between the families erupts into new violence and stain citizens with the blood of the fellow citizens.” The feud between the
Nothing good can ever come out of holding a grudge with someone. The Montagues and Capulets both had a huge hatred for each other, which lead to several fights and many deaths over many generations. This grudge was a huge reason why Romeo, son of Montague and Juliet, daughter of Capulet died. As well as, Mercutio, Tybalt, Paris, and Lady Montague.
‘Romeo and Juliet’ by William Shakespeare incorporates the theme of conflict through many different characters and situations. The definition of conflict is “a fight, battle, or struggle; especially a prolonged struggle; strife” The play mainly focuses on the tragic lives of Romeo Montague and Juliet Capulet; the two characters belong to the Montague and Capulet households respectively, which have held ongoing grudges against each other for years. The play ends with both main characters committing suicide, to be together in heaven. As with many of Shakespeare’s works, the theme of conflict is a strong one. For a start, there is the ongoing conflict between the two families; the Montagues and the Capulets. The audience is unsure how this grudge started; this reflects how tedious some ongoing grudges can be. This is a vital conflict to keep the structure of the story, as without this conflict Romeo and Juliet would not have encountered the problems they had with their marriage. However, there are different ways of putting this grudge across - through dialogue, such as Mercutio’s intell...
Firstly, the Capulets and Montagues are at odds with each other. Members of each house and servants break into a sword fight, clashing with each other. Sampson says "Draw, if you be men. Gregory, remember thy swashing blow." (Act 1, Scene 1, Line 60). The feuding between the two families motivates Sampson to challenge the Capulets. Another example of how the two houses despise each other is what Romeo and his friends have to do to get into the Capulet feast. So they will not be recognized, Romeo, Mercutio, and Benvolio wear comic masks to hide their faces. Mercutio says, "Give me a case to put my visage in" (Act 1, Scene 4, Line 29). They do not want to be recognized because of the hatred between the two houses. Also, Romeo and Juliet are not supposed to be in love: "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." says Juliet (Act 1, Scene 5, Lines 137-140). They are not supposed to love each other because it just so happens that each of their houses despise each other. It is unfortunate for Romeo and Juliet that their two families are against each other, because this means that they are not supposed to be married.
One reason Lady Capulet is the character most responsible for Juliet and Romeo’s death is because of
The Nurse was also responsible for the tragic ending of the play. When Romeo and Juliet met, the Nurse became their messenger. She helped them be together even though she knew Romeo was a Montague and that Juliet's family would disapprove. The Nurse brought news to Juliet from Romeo telling her to sneak out so they could get married. She helped Juliet get out of her house by bringing her a rope ladder to climb off her balcony with and telling her parents that she went to shrift. The Nurse kept Romeo and Juliet's marriage a secret from the families. When Juliet's parents said she should marry Paris, the Nurse agreed and said that Juliet should forget about Romeo because he was in Mantua. With the Nurse no longer on her side she had no one to help her and back her up but the Friar. In this way she had a large impact on the terrible ending of Romeo and Juliet.
First, Lord Capulet was one of the leading halves of the feud between the families. Lord Capulet hated the Montagues. The hatred between the two families kept Juliet and Romeo separated; until they finally met at the party Romeo wasn't even supposed to be. In the book, it says, "From ancient grudge break to new mutiny, where civil blood makes civil hands unclean," (Shakespeare 7). The feud had gone to shedding blood between the Capulets and Montagues. Separating the two lovers even
Shakespeare never tells us why they are feuding but we know that there is a lot of
The Montagues and Capulets have shown a fair amount of hate towards each other, no Montague or Capulet were seen as friends. Their hatred for each other has been going on for centuries and they do not know why they are in a family feud. Romeo and Juliet were quite aware of their families feuds but when they met and fell in love
There is a lot of conflict in the tragedy. There is Romeo and Tybalt, Capulet and Montague, Juliet asking to herself if the potion is worth the risk of dying. I think that the one that is the most important is Romeo and Tybalt because they are the most popular kids in the family and they are the most aggressive.
In 'Romeo and Juliet' by William Shakespeare, family relationships are absolutely vital and their importance could be argued to be greater than that of romantic relationships. This is a very unusual stand point, as most other literature produced in the Elizabethian era was that of romantic love, rather than of family connections. This play, however, show's romantic love in the light of family relationships, and sees the test that it may have on a these families to accept change into their lives. As the Monatgues and the Capulet's are sworn enemies, the rivalry between their families is almost unbreakable. Throughout the play, we see many points in which their hatred for each other is presented, mostly through the character of Tybalt. In this play, Tybalt is seen as the physical embodiment of the hatred between the families and in Act 1 scene 3, we see Tybalt challenging Romeo to a fight after appearing at the Capulet ball. His anger towards Romeo is apparent, as the first thing he expresses to Romeo that "thou art a villain.". This line is pivotal in the play, as it is the beginning of the ultimate feud between both families, and as it is so short, has a high impact whilst being heard by an audience.
