    A character goes through many changes that depend on the kind of events they experience. The play “Romeo and Juliet” written by William Shakespeare, uses different tones and language that shows the readers that Juliet, a Protagonist, changes over time, proving the idea that she is a dynamic character. At the beginning of the play, we are introduced to a young, innocent and inexperienced girl, Juliet the daughter of Lord Capulet . She has not yet seen the real world and is raised by the person she trusts most, her nurse. Juliet begins as a naive child who has thought little about love and marriage, but she grows up quickly upon falling in love with Romeo, the son of her family’s great enemy. Due to the fact that Juliet is a girl in an aristocratic family, she has none of the freedom Romeo has to rome around the city, climb over walls in the middle of the night, or get into swordfights. As we begin to learn more about the character of Juliet, we learn that Juliet is not the girl she used to be anymore. She is more courageous and willing to break the rules. She goes against her and her family beliefs. In the beginning of the play she obeys her parents. But as the play descends Juliet is disregarding of what her parents say. She is no longer the innocent girl she use to be. Shakespeare use of language helps the reader to see the change in a character that makes them a dynamic character.

    The proverb goes that “the road to hell is paved with good intentions.” In the classic play Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, this proverb reflects Friar Lawrence’s preeminent role in the tragedy of the two teenage lovers, each belonging to feuding families in Verona. Though Friar Lawrence’s motives are filled with good intentions, he does not always use the moral approach to reach them. In his play, Friar Lawrence is the most responsible character for Romeo and Juliet’s deaths because he is not only political, but also irresponsible and deceptive.

  • Examples Of Impulsiveness In Romeo And Juliet

    After only getting to know each other for just a few hours, Romeo and Juliet make the decision together to get married the next day. As Romeo pleads with Friar Lawrence to perform the marriage ceremony, he says, "But this I pray, / That thou consent to marry us to-day" (2.3.67-68). This simple line by Romeo illustrates the impulsiveness of the two teen's decisions and how that leads to further conflict because he begs the Friar that the marriage must be done as soon as possible. Instead of being reasonable, Romeo and Juliet insist to get married after supposedly meeting their true loves just one day prior to this. The immaturity of this decision is what ultimately leads to the demise of the two characters. Secondly, Romeo and Juliet's decision to look over the fact that their families are sworn enemies leads to a string of further problems. As Romeo speaks to Juliet from her balcony, Juliet says, “My ears have yet not drunk a hundred words/Of thy tongue’s uttering, yet I know the sound./Art thou not Romeo, and a Montague?” (2.2.64-65). After hearing this, Romeo responds, “Neither, fair maid, if either thee dislike” (2.2.66). This illustrates the couple's willingness to be oblivious to the fact that their families have been feuding for longer than anyone could remember. They are still risking being caught together when they
