Are you at fault with everything that goes wrong in your life? Conflicts in life include many other people, it wouldn’t be a problem if it was just you that was affected. No one person is to blame about the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, the main people that contributed are Romeo, Juliet, Friar Laurence, and Nurse.
No one person is to blame for the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet but Romeo was a major person that contributed to his death. To begin with Romeo states, ”Shall bitterly begin his fearful date, With this night's revels and expire the term, Of a despised life closed in my breast, By some vile forfeit of untimely death”(Act 1 Scene 4). Romeo says this while he is on his way to the Capulet’s party. He knows that he will find something that night that will lead to his death. Benvolio also tells romeo, “Romeo, away, be gone!, The citizens are up, and Tybalt slain, Stand not amazed: the prince will doom thee death, If thou art taken: hence, be gone, away!”(Act 3 Scene 1). When Romeo kills Tybalt he should’ve have thought through

Friar Laurence states, “For this alliance may so happy prove, To turn your households' rancour to pure love”(Act 2 Scene 3). Friar Lawrence married Romeo and Juliet out of love, but he didn’t think first about the consequences of the marriage. When people are in love they can be blind to what their love can do, and in this case their love blinded Friar into marrying them. Friar also said, “Hold; get you gone, be strong and prosperous, In this resolve: I'll send a friar with speed, To Mantua, with my letters to thy lord”(Act 4 Scene 4). If the letter with the plan written on it had made it to Mantua then Romeo would have not gone to see Juliet and wouldn’t think she dead. If he didn’t think she was dead then he wouldn’t have killed himself. This entire play revolves around miscommunication, all they had to do was tell someone who wasn’t caught up in the
Why is it that we as human beings feel the need to blame someone for every negative situation, which occurs? If we really look at the situation with any great depth, we may discover that an almost endless amount of things may be 'blamed' for the tragedy; blaming an individual is pointless - only fate can really be blamed. & nbsp; Some characters who are more commonly blamed are Romeo and Juliet themselves. With their headstrong personalities, and love, which seemed so sure, they had in fact condemned themselves. Romeo was the first to promote the relationship at the Capulet party. It was a case of 'love-at-first-sight' for him, so he felt obligated to seek Juliet on her balcony, and charm the engagement into existence.
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.
When Romeo and Juliet realize they can’t be together, and Juliet is expected to marry Paris, she needs an escape plan. Juliet pays a visit to the Friar, who creates a plan for Juliet to fake her death with a sleeping potion. When Juliet asks the Friar to help her break free from her wedding with Paris, he replies that: If, rather than to marry County Paris, Thou has the strength of will to slay thyself; Then it is likely thou wilt undertake A thing like death to elude away this shame, That cop'st with death himself to scrape from it; And, if thou darest, I'll give thee remedy. IV i 71-76. Therefore, for the second time, the Friar acts unwisely and agrees to give Juliet this deadly potion.
WHO IS THE BLAME? Good afternoon, my fellow audience. I am here today to persuade you on who I believe to be the character most responsible for the death of the two main characters in the play, Romeo and Juliet, a tragedy written by William Shakespeare. It is almost an ironic play because of its open and easily known ending, but yet its ending raises the controversial question, WHO IS TO BLAME FOR THE DEATH OF ROMEO AND JULIET? I believe every character in the book contributed to their deaths, even Romeo and Juliet themselves, but Friar Lawrence bears a monumental deal of the blame because he was the principle and most reliable adult that could have steered the ‘inexperienced’ couple, but his incompetency led Romeo and Juliet to a violent death.
Is there one person to blame for all the tragic events of Romeo and Juliet? Romeo and Juliet, the tragedy written by Shakespeare in 1595 is a very favored play. The play is mostly a comedy up until the death of Mercutio, it turns into a tragedy from then on. Because of how many tragic events happen to the “star-crossed lovers” it may be easy to believe that fate was definitely against them, but, some may believe there is one person to blame for most of the tragedies. Friar Laurence would be the character most to blame for the tragic events in Romeo and Juliet because in the beginning he helped and consented the marriage of Romeo and Juliet. Then, after Romeo kills Tybalt and gets banished from Verona, Juliet was planned to be married to Paris.
I believe the most to blame for Romeo and Juliet's death is Capulet. I say this because Capulet forced Juliet to marry a man she does not love or have feelings for. But she loves Romeo but he is a Montague. Capulet hates Montagues so he would not allow it if she told him.
“For never was a story of more woe than this of Juliet and her Romeo.” Romeo and Juliet were in love and the Friar decided to marry them, but after they were married, they would never be able to live a long and happy life with each other. Though the Friar was a father to Romeo he should not have given Juliet the potion and he should have just taken Juliet away at night so she and Romeo can be together again. Friar Laurence is the one to be blamed for every tragic that has happened.

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.
Romeo’s decision to kill Tybalt is an example of Romeo’s irrationalism because the fight could have been avoided. Furthermore, this fight banished Romeo from Verona which resulted in many more situations which all led to the death of Romeo and Juliet. Next, when Romeo drank the poison next to Juliet, he was very quick to act. This terrible decision killed Romeo himself, and once Juliet woke up, she was also quick to stab herself, causing her to quickly die. Lastly, Friar Lawrence did not properly think through his plan to give Juliet the potion which would mimic her death because the message to Romeo did not arrive, causing Romeo to kill himself. In conclusion, these characters are held responsible for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet instead of
In conclusion, the three characters were responsible for Romeo’s and Juliet’s death because they were stubborn.
